Name the 4 chambers of the heart, and where they receive blood from:

Name the 3 muscle layers of the heart, give an example of where you would find these:

Name the 2 AV Valves (Atrioventricular) and the 2 SV Valves (semilunar). Valves keep blood flowing in one direction, keeping blood in one chamber until the next chamber is ready.

The first heart sound is known as the ______________ and the ( lub OR dub )

The second heart sound is known as the _______________ and the ( lub OR dub )

What arteries are responsible for supplying blood to the heart?

Coronary veins return blood to the right atrium through what?

The conduction system is also know as the __________________ circuit.

List the 4 main components of the Conduction system, in order:

Which of thse is known for being the pacemaker of the heart, initiates the eletrical impulse, stimulates contraction of the atrium, sends signal to the AV Node, generates 60-100 impulses/minute, and seen on ECG as P wave? * Atrioventricular Node (AV Node) * Bundle of HIS * Purkinje Fibers * Sinoatrial Node (SA Node)

Which of thse is known for having terminal ends of the left and right bundle branches, when impulses reach here it signals ventricles to contract, forms the QRS complex on ECG, and it can generate 20-40 impulses/min if SA & AV nodes fail? * Atrioventricular Node (AV Node) * Bundle of HIS * Purkinje Fibers * Sinoatrial Node (SA Node)

Which of thse is known for having the impulses divided into the right and left bundle branches, the bundle branches terminate at the Purkinje fibers, the left branch stimulates the left ventricle and the right branch stimulates the right ventricle? * Atrioventricular Node (AV Node) * Bundle of HIS * Purkinje Fibers * Sinoatrial Node (SA Node)

Which of thse is

    The two major sounds that are heard in a normal heart beat sound like “lub dub”. The “lub” is the first heart sound, commonly termed S1, and is caused by turbulence caused by the closure of mitral and tricuspid valves at the start of systole. The second sound, “dub” or S2, is caused by the closure of aortic and pulmonic valves, marking the end of systole. (STETHOGRAPHICS.COM)…

    1. The lub sound occurs during the closing of the Atrioventricular valve caused by ventricular contraction. The R wave occurs during the depolarization of the ventricles. Hence the lub sound occurs because of both the depolarization and consequently the closing of the AV valves which prevent blood flow back into the atria.…

    11. Describe the pathway of conduction from the atria to the ventricles and correlate this conduction with the ECG waves. The SA node is designated as the pacemaker of the heart. From the SA node, the electrical impulse spreads through interatrial tracts that spread the electrical impulse through the right and left atria and therefore cause atrial depolarization. As a result, a P-wave is observed. After the atria depolarize, the electrical impulse spreads through the internodal tracts and reach the atrioventricular node (AV node). The AV node has its own pacing rhythm that serves as a back up pacemaker in case the SA node fails to initiate an electrical impulse. Consequently, the AV node slows down the electrical impulse to allow the atria to project their blood into the ventricles. From the AV node, the impulse travels through the bundle of His, which bifurcate into the left and right bundle branches. From the branches, the impulse travels through the Purkinje fibers and allows the electrical impulse to end…

    7. What causes the sound of a heartbeat - The first heart sound (lub) is caused by the acceleration and deceleration of blood and a vibration of the heart at the time of the closure of the tricuspid and mitral valves. The second heart sound (dub) is caused by the same acceleration and deceleration of blood and vibrations at the time of closure of the pulmonic and aortic valves. Basically, the sound comes from the heart valves closing.…

    The outer wall of the human heart is composed of three layers. The outer layer is called the epicardium, or visceral pericardium since it is also the inner wall of the pericardium. The middle layer is called the myocardium and is composed of muscle which contracts. The inner layer is called the endocardium and is in contact with the blood that the heart pumps. Also, it merges with the inner lining (endothelium) of blood vessels and covers heart valves…
