Q

Conducting cells

A

all cardiac muscle cells are conducting cells because they all conduct APs, a small amount are specialized to rapdily spread the electrical stimulus to the chambers

17
Q

Atria

A

chambers through which blood flows from veins to ventricles
-receive blood from veins
-contraction addes to ventricular filling but not essential

18
Q

Ventricles

A

chambers whose contractions produce the pressures that drive blood through the pulmonary and systemic vascular systems and back to the heart

19
Q

arteries

A

-low resistance tubes conducting blood flow to organs

20
Q

Arterioles

A

major sites of resistance to flow, regulate the pattern of blood flow distribution to the various organs

21
Q

Capillaries

A

major site of exchange

22
Q

Venules

A

sites of migration of leukocytes from the blood into tissues

23
Q

Veins

A

low resistance high capacity vessels carrying blood back to the heart

24
Q

What is the purpose of heart valves

A

to promote one way direction of blood flow

25
Q

AV valves

A

Right and left AV valve

26
Q

Semilunar valves

A

pulmonary semilunar valve and the aortic semilunar valve

27
Q

High pressure and volume in the atrium

A

valve opens and blood goes into the ventricle

28
Q

High pressur and volume in ventricle and little pressure and volume in atrium

A

valve closed

29
Q

High pressure and volume in ventricle and no pressure in atrium

A

blood goes into atrium

30
Q

Normal open valve

A

laminar flow (quiet)

31
Q

Normal closed valve

A

no flow (quiet)

32
Q

Stenotic valve (poor opening)

A

narrowed valve, turbulent backflow = murmur=gurgle

33
Q

Inapproporiate volume leads to

A

abnormally high pressure

34
Q

Insufficient valve (poor closing)

A

leaky valve
-turbulent backflow=murmur=gurgle

35
