what is starling's law   A contractile property where the myocardial fiber stretches during filling, which incr strength of following contraction  
🗑
name parts of cardiac conduction system   ANS,SNS,PSNS, SA node, AV node, Bundle of His, Purkinje fibers  
🗑
how does a conduction work in the heart   begins with SA node, then AV node, slows down signal before enters vent to give atria time to contract before vent. The purkenje fibers are the fast acting fibers that contract the vent.  
🗑
what are the two regulators for respiration   The CNS(cerbral cortex, medulla) and Chemicals in blood (CO2, O2, H ions)

🗑
