Studying the heart

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.

Question
Answer
show ENDOCARDIUM, MYOCARDIUM, EPICARDIUM  
🗑
show most inner layer. lined with valves and blood vessels. smooth & shiny, lets blood flow over it easy.  
🗑
ENDOCARDIUM   show
🗑
show thin outer layer.  
🗑
PERICARDIUM   show
🗑
4 CHAMBERS OF THE HEART   show
🗑
show thin walled cavity. receives unoxygenated blood from the superior & inferior vena cava.  
🗑
SUPERIOR VENA CAVA   show
🗑
show collects blood from the lower part of the body  
🗑
show receive unoxygenated blood from the right atrium. then pumps blood thru the pulmonary arteries to the lungs.  
🗑
show thin wall cavity that receives oxygenated blood from the lungs thru the 4 pulmonary veins  
🗑
LEFT VENTRICLE   show
🗑
AORTA   show
🗑
VENTRICULAR HYPERTROPHY   show
🗑
show right atrioventricular valve(AV), left atrioventricular valve(AV), pulmonic semilunar valve(right semilunar valve), aortic semilunar valve(left semilunar valve)  
🗑
HEART VALVES PURPOSE   show
🗑
show "the enterence valves" two located between the atria and the ventricles of each side of the heart.  
🗑
show located between right atrium and right ventricle and called the TRICUSPID VALVE.  
🗑
show located between left atrium and left ventricle. also, called the BICUSPID or MITRAL VALVE.  
🗑
show exit of blood from the ventricules  
🗑
show located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery. right ventricle relaxes, valve is closed. when right ventricle contracts blood from ventricle forces pulmonic valve open.  
🗑
AORTIC SEMILUNAR VALVE(LEFT SEMILUNAR VALVE)   show
🗑
GREAT VESSELS   show
🗑
show tough bands of connective tissue that connect AV valves to ventricles.  
🗑
show valves allows blood to leak back into the chamber from which it has just been pumped.  
🗑
show vibrations caused by the closure of the valves.(lubb dubb)  
🗑
show S3 & S4 are extra sounds heard by rapid flow of blood thru the ventricles and sounds like a gallop sound.  
🗑
SHUNTS   show
🗑
CORONARY ARTERIES   show
🗑
ANGINA   show
🗑
show collects blood that nourishes the heart. carries it to the coronary sinuses which empties blood into the right atrium.  
🗑
ISCHEMIA(not enough oxygen)   show
🗑
MI (HEART ATTACK) MYOCARDIAL INFARCT   show
🗑
SINAATRIAL NODE(SA NODE)   show
🗑
"Pacemaker of the Heart"   show
🗑
show any normal firing of the SA Node  
🗑
show is called action potiential or cardiac impulse  
🗑
show (SPECIAL CONDUCTION TISSUE LOCATED IN THE SEPTUM) SLOWING ALLOWSTIME FOR THE VENTRICLES TO FILL WITH BLOOD.  
🗑
show conducting fibers that rapidly spread electric signal thru out ventricles.  
🗑
ELECTROCARDIOGRAM(ECG)   show
🗑
show atrial depolarization(precedes and triggers contaction of the heart muscle)  
🗑
P-R-INTERVAL   show
🗑
show electrical event that triggers contraction of the heart.  
🗑
show contraction of the heart muscle-myocardium-pumps blood out of a chamber  
🗑
show relaxation of the heart muscle-blood fills a chamber.  
🗑
DESCRIBE THE FUNCTION OF THE MYOCARDIUM   show
🗑
show A. increases SA Node activity(increase heart rate) B. increases the speed of cardiac impulse C. increases the force of contraction.  
🗑
show A. decreases SA Node activity(heart rate). B. decreases the speed of the cardiac impulse.  
🗑
MYOCARDIUM DEFRACTION   show
🗑
show mimics vagel response(slows heart rate-digoxin)  
🗑
VAGOLYTIC   show
🗑
CARDIAC OUTPUT   show
🗑
STROKE VOLUME   show
🗑
show degree of stretch in the myocardial fibers  
🗑
show percentiage of blood that is pumped out of the ventricle with each heart beat  
🗑
show RESPITORY ISSUES  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
