Q

What are the roles of the fibrous pericaridum?

A

Protects the heart, anchors the heart to surrounding structures, prevents overfilling the heart with blood.

Q

How are the four chambers of the heart divided?

A

2 superior atria and 2 inferior ventricles

20
Q

divides the atria chambers

A

Interatrial septum

21
Q

divides the ventricle chambers

A

interventricle septum

22
Q

How are chambers of the heart divided ?

A

Longitudinally by a septum

23
Q

eceiving chambers and ineffective pumps

24
Q

Thick wall discharging chambers of the heart

A

ventricles

25
Two visible grooves on the surface indicating boundaries of chambers and carry blood vessels
cornary sulcus and the anterior interventricle sulcus
26
encircles junction of the atria and ventricles like a crown
cornary sulcus
27
what seperates the right and left ventricles
anterior interventricle sulcus
28
What are the four heart valves
Atrioventricular valves, semilunar valves, Tricuspid valve, mitral valve.
29
Valve between atrium and ventricle
Atrioventricular valve
30
Between the ventricle and great vessel
semilunar valve
31
right AV valve
Tricuspid valve
32
left AV valve
mitral valve `
33
results of depolarization waves traveling through the heart
heart contraction
34
The ability of the heart to beat is
insintrict
35
true or false: the heart beat does not depend on impulses from the nervous system
true
36
ensures the heart muscle depolarizes in an orderly and sequential manner
cardiac pacemaker cells
37
right atrium inferior to vena cava
SA Node
38
lower atrial septum at the junction of the A and
AV Node
39
in the interventricular septum
AV bundle
40
generates impulses
SA Node
41
The node in which the impulses pause
AV node
42
conducts impulses to the bundle branches
AV Bundle
43
conduct the impulses through the interventrical septum
Bundle branches
44
depolarizes the contractilecells of both ventricles
subendo cardial conducting network
45
a region between 2 waves
segment
46
a region that contains a segment and one or more waves
interval
