cardiovascular system Flashcards
(32 cards)
upperchamber of heart
atrium
prevents blood movement from right ventricle to right atrium
tricuspid valve
structure from which chordea tendineae originates
pappillary muscle
double layered membrane
pericardium
prevents blood movement from left ventricle to left atrium
bicuspid valve
gives rise to pulmanary arteries
pulmanary trunk
drains blood from myocardium into right atrium
coronary sinus
inner lining of heart chamber
endocardium
layer composed largely of cardiac muscle muscle tissue
myocardium
potential space containing serous fliud
pericardial cavity
drain blood from myocardial cappilaries
cardiac viens
supplies blood to heart muscles
coronary artery (widow maker
distrubutes blood to body parts
aorta
phase of contraction pushing blood
systole
phase of relaxation filling with blood
diastole
ventricles are already 70% full of blood the contraction of the atria forces the other % into ventricles
atrial systole
begins as atrial systole ends, av valves swing shut as the pressure builds. blood pushes open the the sl valves and blood flows into the aorta and the pulmonary arterie
ventricular systole
ventricular pressure declines, sl valve blood pressure continues to decline and av valves open and blood flows into ventricles both atria and ventricles and in diastole
ventricular diastole
how are heart sounds made
sound of blood hitting the valves
LUB First sound loudest and longest how is it cuased
during ventricular systole by pressure of the blood hitting against the closing av valves
dub second sound caused by
the blood hiting the closing semilunar valves
valves that dont close proplerly cuases a
heart murmer
Cells 99% of cardiac muscle
contractile cells
cells that starts electricle systems( specialized 1%
nodal cells
