These particles form when chylomicrons lose most of their triglyceride content and become enriched in cholesterol esters in the exogenous pathway.

  • What are chylomicron remnants?
100
  • These 2 ion’s slow, sustained influx is responsible for the plateau phase in a     contractile cardiomyocyte action potential. 
  • What is Ca2+ and K+?
100

I moved as one while never alone, In water deep my skill was shown


This vessel has an incomplete     membrane and large gaps allowing fast diffusion of large proteins

  • Who is Alexa?
  • What are sinusoidal capillaries?
100
  • These muscular ridges line the ventricles and prevent suction during contraction. 
  • What are trabeculae carneae?
100
  • Beta-2 receptors are typically found here
  • What is skeletal muscle?
200

This apolipoprotein is the ligand for LDL receptor–mediated endocytosis.

What is ApoB-100?

200

This is the phase-name of when S1 and S2 sounds can be heard

  • What is isovolumetric contraction and relaxation?
200

I once spoke in circuits and thought in bright lines, Dreamed of a future built from currents and signs

These small vessels supply the outer walls of large arteries and veins with oxygenated blood

  • Who is Ash?
  • What are the vasa vasorum?
200
  • This structure connects and allows communication between the pulmonary trunk to the aortic arch. 
  • What is the ligamentum arteriosum?
200
  • This describes the action of drugs that inhibit nerve impulses
  • What is sympatholytic?
300
  • This hepatic receptor selectively uptakes cholesterol from HDL.
  • What is SR-B1?
300
  • Cardiac muscle relies almost exclusively on this metabolic pathway, making it highly resistant to fatigue but vulnerable to hypoxia. 
  • What is aerobic respiration?
300
  • I touched the sky from Earth’s highest place. Who am I, with a story that reaches the roof of the     world
  • This layer contains longitudinal bundles in smooth muscle in large veins
  • Who is Ozair?
  • What is the tunica adventitia?
300
  • This pericardial sinus lies posterior to the ascending aorta and pulmonary trunk. 
  • What is the transverse pericardial sinus?
300
  • This receptor subtype is found on the adrenal medulla 
  • What is nicotinic neural?
400
  • Statins increase the expression of this receptor.
  • What is a LDL receptor?
400
  • This phase of the cardiac cycle begins when ventricular pressure exceeds atrial pressure but remains below aortic pressure, causing all valves to be closed. 
  • What is isovolumetric contraction?
400
  • I work in a place where storms never form, yet drills thunder daily in practiced norm
  • These vessels regulate blood flow into capillary beds and provide the greatest resistance to blood flow. 
  • Who is Anetta?
  • What are arterioles?
400
  • This venous structure drains most of the heart’s venous blood into the right atrium. 
  • What is the coronary sinus?
400
  • This receptor subtype mediates bronchodilation and is the target of salbutamol. 
  • What is B2 receptor?
500

A patient with normal ApoC‑II and normal LPL activity still has delayed chylomicron clearance. Which specific defect in the exogenous pathway would most likely explain this?

  • What is ApoE deficiency with impaired hepatic remnant uptake?
500
  • This is the primary anatomical reason the left ventricular myocardium receives most of its blood flow during diastole rather than systole. 
  • What is compression of coronary arteries during systole?
500
  • Two passports wait for summer's call, chasing sunsets past an ocean’s wall
  • A patient in septic shock has profound vasodilation due to loss of vascular smooth     muscle tone. Which vessel type contributes most to the drop in systemic vascular resistance? 
  • Who is Rose and Lucy?
  • What are arterioles?
500
  • This surface of the heart is formed by both ventricles and the inferior surface of the right atrium. 
  • What is the diaphragmatic surface?
500
  • This leads to post-synaptic receptor up-regulation 
  • What is chronic adrenergic antagonist use?
