What chamber does the blood return to once it leaves the lungs.
Left Atrium
What is the liquid portion of blood?
plasma
Sites of gas exchange
Capillaries
Ventricular repolarization (relaxation) is represented by the
T wave
Where deoxygenated blood enters the heart
right atrium
There are four valves inside the heart name them.
Tricuspid, Mitral or bicuspid, Pulmonary, and Aortic
Largest artery in the body
Aorta
Blood vessel that carries blood from the lower body into the right atrium
Inferior vena cava
Also referred to as the Pacemaker
SA Node
Heart chamber that supplies oxygenated blood to the body
Left Ventricle
What type of blood is in the pulmonary artery(oxygenated or deoxygenated)
deoxygenated
What is the name of the valve between the right atria and right ventricle
Tricuspid
Defining characteristic differences between Arteries and Veins
Arteries have thicker muscle layer, Veins have valves
This part of the ECG signifies ventricular depolarization (contraction)
QRS Complex
The muscular layer of the heart is called:
Myocardium
Blood vessel carrying oxygenated blood to the left atrium
pulmonary vein
Anemia is the bodies lack of:
Hemoglobin / Iron
How does your body pump blood through veins?
Partially heart, mostly skeletal muscle
This part of the ECG signifies atrial depolarization (contraction)
P Wave
A wall of tissue that divides the right and left sides of the heart
Cardiac septum
Put the following terms in order of blood flow: Starting with Right Atrium
- Right atrium, Left Atrium, Right Ventricle, Left Ventricle, Mitral Valve, Tricuspid Valve
- RA, Tricuspid, RV, LA, Mitral, LV
Endothelium is composed of what type of tissue?
Simple Squamous
Bicuspid, Mitral, Left Atrioventricular Valve
What are the three parts of the heart that produce electrical impulses?
1. Atrial Contraction
2. Ventricular Contraction
3. Restart/Valves closing
SA node, AV node, Purkinje Fibers
