What is the path of blood flow through the heart?

Starting from superior vena cava to right atrium to tricuspid valve to right ventricle to pulmonary valve to pulmonary artery to lungs to pulmonary vein to left atrium to mitral valve to left ventricle to aortic valve to aorta to the body

Describe blood flow through the body

Heart to aorta to arteries to arterials to capillaries to venules to large veins to inferior and superior vena cava

What is heart rate time stroke, volume?

Cardiac output the amount of blood pumped in one minute

Name the parts of the cardiac cycle

Systole ,diastole ,atrial diastole, atrial systole ventricle diastole,ventricle systole

Explain in simple terms the cardiac cycle

Period of contraction. Of relaxation. Of atrial falling. Of atrial contraction and emptying. A ventricular filling. Of ventricular contraction.

Describe the path of electrical conduction

SA node to atrial muscle to AV node to bundle of HIS/AV bundle, to right, and left bundle branch to Purkinje fibers

What happens during the P-wave?

Atrial depolarization and contraction

What happens at the QRS wave?

Atrial repolarize, but it’s masked by ventricular depolarization

What happens during the ST wave

No net electrical charge

Explain the process of ventilation

Air moves from high pressure to low pressure is the size of the thoracic cavity. Decreases pressure inside increases vice verSa

_____ inhalation is passive


________ requires cellular energy

Quiet exhalation, inhalation

Quiet inhalation begins with contraction of what

Diaphragm and external intercostals

The amount of air entering the lungs in a normal breath

Tidal volume

Amount of air remaining after forced expiration

Residual volume

Max amount of air that can be inhaled in excess of normal quiet inspiration

Inspiratory reserve volume

Max volume of air expired following a passive expiration

Expiratory reserve volume

The amount of air expired following a maximal inspiration

Vital capacity

The total volume of air in lungs after a maximal inspiration

Total lung capacity

Flow of gases between aviolar air in blood in pulmonary circulation

Diffusion

Which intercostal is responsible for forced exhaling

Internal intercostals

Which intercostal is responsible for breathing in

External

What is systole?

Period of contraction

What is diastole?

Period of relaxation

What is atrial diastole?

Period of atrial filling

What is atrial systole?

Period of atrial contraction in emptying

What is ventricular diastole?

Period of ventricular filling

What happens during QRS wave?

Ventricular, depolarization and contraction

What happens at the T-wave?

Ventricular, repolarization and contraction

What is the difference between alveolar air and blood in the capillary

Alveolar air has a high concentration of oxygen. So oxygen flows into the capillary high to low concentration.

The pulmonary artery has high co2 alveoli has low co2 so what happens

Co2 diffuses to the alveoli
