Module 5 Flashcards
CV system includes, and fn
- heart
- blood
- blood vessels
fn: transport, pathogen protection
Blood composed of
- Plasma: Proteins like Albumins, Globulins, Fibrinogen
- formed elements(cell and cell parts)
- 90% water
erythrocytes
small, round, life span of 120 days
Leukocytes are…
BEN-G, ALM
white blood cells,
- granulocytes: basophils, eosinophils, neutrophils
- agranulocytes: lymphocytes and monocytes
Thrombocytes are
platelets, are involved in hemostasis
Basophils appearance
round, with darker dots
Eosinophils appearance
roundish, binucleate
Neutrophils appearance
trinucleate
Monocytes apperance
one nucleus, moonshaped
Lymphocytes appearance
round, about as small as the RBC
Platelets appearance
small purple blobs
Heart layers out-> in
- Fibrous pericardium: opaque layer
- Parietal Pericardium
- Pericardial cavity: fluid-filled
- Visceral pericardium (Epicardium)
- Myocardium: thickest
- Endocardium
Pericadial sac includes the
Parietal pericardium and Fibrous pericardium
Base and Apex
Base is up top, where the atria are.
Apex is low, the bottom tip of heart
Chambers of the heart
- right atrium
- left atrium
- right ventricle
- left ventricle
What divides the ventricles inside?
interventricular septum
Major blood vessels to know
- Superior Vena cava
- Inferior vena cava
- Aorta (aortic arch)
- Pulmonary trunk
- Pulmonary arteries
- Pulmonary veins
- Descending aorta
part that divides the ventricles on the outside of heart
anterior interventricular sulcus
Heart valves
- Aortic valve
- Right AV valve
- Left AV valve
- Pulmonary valve
Chordae tendineae are..
fibers that attach the valve of the heart to the papillary muscle
Papillary muscle are..
muscles that attach to the valve and aid in contraction
Pulmonary circiut of ciruclation
Heart-> lungs-> heart
Systemic circuit of circulation
heart-> all the body-> heart
Conduction system
SA node depolarizes (~70bpm) >AP to AV node> depolarization spreads to AV bundle> Bundle branches> Purkinje fibers> contraction induced on muscle from apex upward
