Heart Anatomy
These are all of the chambers of the heart.
What are the RA, RV, LA, LV?
These vessels transport blood away from the heart.
What are arteries?
This cell type (scientific name) carries oxygen.
What are erythrocytes?
The A-V node transmits the impulse to this, which is the connection between the atria and ventricles.
What is the bundle of His?
This chamber receives blood from the pulmonary veins.
What is the left atrium?
These muscles control the valves.
What are the papillary muscles?
List the blood vessel types in order of blood flow through the body.
What are arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, veins?
RBCs contain this molecule that binds oxygen.
What is hemoglobin?
The pacemaker of the heart.
What is the sinoatrial node (SA node)?
This is the muscular wall separating the right and left sides of the heart.
What is the interventricular septum?
These are the muscle layers of the heart from inside to outside.
What are the endocardium, myocardium, and epicardium?
These are thin walled vessels and comprised of simple squamous epithelium.
What are capillaries?
The blood type showing agglutination in the Anti-A & Anti-D.
What is A+?
Relaxation of a chamber.
What is diastole?
Blood flows from the superior and inferior vena cavae into this heart structure.
What is the right atrium?
This is the valve located between the left atrium and left ventricle.
What is the bicuspid valve?
These blood vessels are very thick to withstand high pressure.
What are arteries?
What are nutrients, electrolytes, plasma proteins, hormones, enzymes, waste, and water?
When the ventricles contract, which valves are open?
What is the aortic and pulmonary valves?
The circuit that supplies oxygenated blood to the body.
What is the systemic circuit?
These are fibrous strands that fasten papillary muscles to the AV valves.
What is chordeae tendineae?
These are the blood vessels that contain valves.
What are veins?
Leukocytes can be grouped into these categories and include cells like:
What are granulocytes (basophils, eosinophils, neutrophils) and agranulocytes (lymphocytes & monocytes)?
List the electrical impulse pathway of the conduction system? (Hint: nodes)
What is the SA node, AV node, Bundle of his, and Purkinje fibres?
Blood flows from the lungs to the heart through these vessels.
What are the pulmonary veins.
