Final Exam A&P Flashcards
Circuit that pumps blood to the lungs
Pulmonary circuit
Pulmonary circuit starts from what side of the heart?
Right side
In pulmonary circuit, what diffuses from blood into lungs?
CO2 (Carbon dioxide)
In pulmonary circuit, what diffuses from lungs into blood?
O2 (Oxygen)
In pulmonary circuit, blood returns to what side of the heart?
The left side
What circuit pumps blood to the tissues?
Systemic circuit
In systemic circuit, what side of the heart does it start?
Left side.
In systemic circuit, it delivers what to the body & head ?
O2 (Oxygen)
In what circuit picks up CO2 & waste from cells of body & head?
Systemic circuit.
In systemic circuit, which side of the heart does the blood return ?
Right side of heart
Blood flow of deoxygenated blood
Superior & inferior vena cava
Coronary sinus
right atrium
right ventricle
pulmonary trunk/PA
Lungs
blood flow of oxygenated blood
Lungs
4 pulmonary veins
coronary arteries
left atrium
left ventricle
Aorta
Body & head
What valve is between the right atrium & the right ventricle ?
Tricuspid Valve
What valve is in between the left atrium & left ventricle?
Bicuspid (Mitral valve)
Flow of blood
begins w/ deoxygenated blood
1. Sup&inf vena cava
- Right atrium & coronary sinus same time
- Tricuspid valve
2. Right ventricle
- pulmonary semilunar valve
3. Pulmonary trunk
4. Pulmonary arteries
-lung tissue
OXYGENATED START
5. Pulmonary veins
6. left atrium
- bicuspid valve
7. Left ventricle
- aortic semilunar valve
8. Aorta
-coronary arteries
to heart tissues
then deoxygenated blood starts again with cor0nary sinus- cardiac veins into right atrium.
conducting system of the heart contains
- sinoatrial (SA) node
- Atrioventricular (AV) node
- Bundle of His
- AV bundle
- Purkinje fibers
What structure is the pacemaker of the conducting system?
The Sinoatrial (SA) node
Depolarization phase in cardiac muscle
causes voltage gated Ca2+ channels to open
early repolarization phase
voltage gated Na channels & some voltage gated Ca 2+ channels close.
Plateau phase
voltage gated Ca2 channels remain open
final repolarization phase
voltage gated Ca2 channels close
many more voltage gated K+ channels open.
EKG deflections
p wave
QRS complex
t wave
What happens in P wave?
Atrial depolarization which Result in atrial contractions.
AD—> AC
what happens in QRS complex?
ventricular depolarization results in ventricular contractions
VD —> VC
