Which Artery in the body is the only Artery that carries Deoxygenated Blood?
Pulmonary Artery (it is connected to the Right Ventricle and it carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs to get oxygenated)
300
What is considered the Primary Pacemaker?

120 Days
400
Has A antigen
Has anti-B antibodies.
Has RH antigen
A+
400
What Valve separates the Right Atrium & Right Ventricle?
Tricuspid Valve
400
Damage to the electrical pathway at the SA node would be reflected by which change on an ECG tracing?
absent or inverted P wave
500
Which Chamber has the strongest and thickest Myocardium Layer & Why?
Left Ventricle and because it has the furthest distant to pump blood (all through the body head to toe)

Normally the human body does not have anti-RH antibodies, when are the 2 times a body will produce anti-RH antibodies?
1. When a RH- mother is pregnant with an RH+ fetus.
2. When a RH- patient receives RH+ transfusion of blood.
500
What Valve separates the Left Ventricle and Aorta?
Aortic Valve

State the HR Rate Range per Structure
SA Node = (Blank) to (Blank) bpms
AV Node = (Blank) to (Blank) bpms
Purkinje Fibers = (Blank to Blank) bpms
SA Node = 60-100 bpm
AV Node = 40-60 bpm
Purkinje Fibers = 20-40 bpm
