23
Q

The bundle of His fibers travel down the interventricular septum to the bottom end of the left and right ventricles. And the ______ fibers carry the impulses from the bundle of His up into the ventricular myocardium.

Q

“Lub” in “lub-dub” is properly called…

25
"Dub" in "lub-dub" is properly known as...
S2
26
_____ is associated with sinultaneous closure of the mitral valve and tricuspid calves at the beginning of ventricular systole
S1 (lub)
27
The S2 heart sound (dub) is associated with what?
Associated with the closure of the semilunar valves at the beginning of ventricular diastole
28
Which side of the chest is the aortic valve easiest to hear on?
Easier to hear in the left side of the chest
29
Heart sounds S3 and S4 are heard on what animals?
Large animals
30
What is heart sound S3 due to?
Due to rapid ventricular filling in large animals
31
What is heart sound S4 due to?
Due to contraction of the atria in large animals
32
The amount of blood that leaves the heart is known as
Cardiac output
33
Cardiac output is determined by what two factors?
Stroke volume and heart rate
34
The amount of blood ejected with each cardiac contraction is known as
Stroke volume
35
How often the heart contracts is known as
Heart rate
36
A dogs heart ejects 2mL of blood into the aorta with each systolic contraction and its heart rate is 100 beats per minute, what is the animals cardiac output?
``` CO= stroke volume X heart rate CO= 2mL/min (SV) X 100 beats/min (HR) CO= 200mL/min ```
