a patch of myocytes in the right atrium near the opening of the superior vena cava
Sinoatrial (SA) node
a patch of cells at the lower end of the interatrial septum near the right AV (tricuspid) valve
Atrioventricular (AV) node
connects the AV node to the conduction branches that travel down the interventricular septum and allow for ventricular depolarization
Bundle of His (atrioventricular bundle)
these collectively travel the septum and provide independent depolarization waves for each of the ventricles
right and left bundle branches
conduct an electrical stimulus or impulse that enables the heart to contract in a coordinated fashion
purkinje fibers
the dissociation of atrial and ventricular excitation
heart block
the signal from the atria to the ventricles is completely blocked
total heart block
anarchy in the heart chambers where contraction is random and unorganized
fibrillation
signal originates at the heart (doesn't need stimulus from the CNS)
myogenic
cardiac rest; period when ventricles are filling with blood
diastole
ventricular contraction; blood is being ejected
systole
wave produced when the atria depolarize

the first wave (ECG)
P-wave
first negative ventricular deflection
Q-wave
first positive ventricular deflection
R-wave
first negative deflection after the R-wave
S-wave
if there is no positive R-wave, the negative deflection is called the _-_ wave
Q-S wave
this wave marks the change in voltage created by ventricular repolarization
T-wave
the _-_ segment corresponds to the time when calcium has entered the cardiac myocytes

ventricles are contracting
S-T segment
Describe what is happening at each of these points:
P
Q
R
S
T
ST segment
P: atria depolarize
Q: first negative ventricular deflection
R: first positive deflections from the ventricle
S: first negative deflection after the R-Wave
T: the change in voltage
ST: corresponds to the time when calcium has entered the cardiac myocytes and the ventricles are contracting

primary bronchi
the primary bronchi separate into the __________ bronchi. The right pulmonary bronchus divides into three and the left primary bronchus divides into two
secondary bronchi
continuations of the airway that lack supportive cartilage
bronchioles
what do the sternum and ribs do as the thoracic cavity inhales?
