cords attached to flaps of AV valves, and to Pappillary Muscle
How do we make sure blood does not flow back into atrium from ventricle? And how do we make sure flaps don’t blow out backward?
-When heart contracts ventricle pressurizes blood and blood tends to flow backward toward the atrium ,
-flaps of the AV valve close not allowing blood to go into atrium
-don’t want flaps to blow out backward, so Chordae Tendinae contract Pappilary Muscles before rest of ventricle contracts
-muscles pull on Chordae Tendinae prevents flaps from being pushed all the way through to atrium
What are the valves between the ventricle and associated artery?
Semilunar Valves=
-normally closed b/c pressure in artery is higher than pressure in ventricle
-Kept closed to prevent blood from going to artery from ventricle while heart at rest, and filling with blood

name and describe the 2 separate circulations
1.Pulmonary Circulation=
-once deoxygenated blood enters Right atrium
-flows into Right ventricle
-flows into pulmonary artery
-then to the lungs
- blood is oxygenated as pass through capillaries in the lungs
-and blood drops off CO2 in lungs
-blood returns by pulmonary veins to left side of the heart
2. Systemic Circulation=
-blood flows from left atrium
-into the left ventricle
-to the aorta
-supplies blood to all parts of the body
- blood passes through capillaries and oxygen is removed and CO2 is added
-once passed through capillaries blood is collected by veins and returns to right side of the heart
Why is the right side of the heart not as strong as the left side of the heart?
-very little resistence in pulmonary circulation
-a lot of resistence in systemic circulation
-this is why right ventricle is thin walled and left ventricle is thick walled because takes more force to push blood through systemic circulation than pulmonary circulation
Coronary artery disease is one of the top killers of Americans. Why is such a tiny blood vessel killing so many people?

in all capillary beds have a straight shot through
What happens on a cold day?
1.As we go outside we open up precapillary sphincters, inc. blood flow to the skin to bring heat to surface (rosy cheeks)
2. As we get too cold we lose too much heat, precapillary sphincters shut off
3.Face becomes white
4.Are pink spots because a little bit of blood flow through the shunts
Name 3 classes of Arteries and there different functions
1.Elastic Arteries= large arteries: aorta, brachiocephallic trunk, lower portion of left common carotid, left subclavian artery,
-have thick TM, Thick TA, they help keep pressure on the blood, swell when heart contract, and contract back down to size when heart is at rest

2.Distributing Arteries= get blood to destination, large TM, not much TA, not elastic, as pressure pushes blood in them blood goes in one side out the other, diameter determines resistence of blood flow, controls where blood goes in body

3.Arteriols= supply blood flow to capillary systems, have moderate TM, has control on where blood flows, size of arteriol determines blood flow to tissue

capillaries

B. Cardiac AP last many times longer than skeletal muscle AP
C. Cardiac cells allow Ca to enter from outside the cell
D. the absolute refractory period is so long that tetany is not possible in cardiac muscle
initial depolarization in cardiac AP is due to Na influx
Why are there valves in veins but not in arteries?
when blood flows back to heart there is little pressure, valves prevent backflow

length of absolute refractory period in cardiac muscle is 250 ms. which is very long and prevents tetany from occuring
The AP of cardiac muscle lasts very long, what is the ultimate advantage of this fact?
ensures cardiac muscle will not undergo tetany, if it did then it would never refill
What makes AP last so long in cardiac muscle?
- Na channels in cardiac muscle are like Na channels in all muscle cells, depolarize quickly, and repolarize quickly
- extra thing added is Ca channels in cell membrane for cardiac muscle, skeletal muscle gets Ca from inside SR, but in cardiac muscle Ca comes from SR and from outside the cell
-Ca leaks into cell and helps to keep cell depolarized
-Na channels cant reset during plateau phase because cell still repolarizing
-decrease K leaking out of cell

-venous return decrease, SV decrease, CO decrease, MAP dropped,
-baroreceptors in Aorta detect this
-trigured reflex to activate sympathetic NS and increase heart rate,
-as tilted up should see increase in heart rate

-Problem with increasing heart rate, less time between beats, less time for blood to return to heart, so EDV will decrease unless do something to increase venous return
-So we need to make veins constrict in feet so blood doesn’t pool up, will increase TPR
-Venous return goes up, Makes stroke volume go back to normal
-should See increase in heart rate, increase in TPR, and decrease in stroke volume, for the baroreceptor reflex
The baroreceptor reflex is triggered when there is a sudden decrease in blood pressure. One response is to inc. HR and another is to stimulate contraction of the veins. Since inc. HR will inc. CO. why should you constrict veins in order to bring blood pressure back to normal?
-Problem with increasing heart rate, less time between beats, less time for blood to return to heart, so EDV will decrease unless do something to increase venous return
-So we need to make veins constrict in feet so blood doesn’t pool up, will increase TPR

-Venous return goes up, Makes stroke volume go back to normal
-should See increase in heart rate, increase in TPR, and decrease in stroke volume, for the baroreceptor reflex

depends on active inhalation and passive exhalation

Draw graph
Physiologist ussually treat central respiratory chemoreceptors that respond to H+ as if they were the same as those that respond to CO2 Why?
I dont know
Why is the intrapleural space a virtual space?
because parietal and visceral pleura are held together so tight there is no volume for air
What happens if you get a wound that penetrates pleural cavities? what is it called?
Called a Pnemothorax
-created a connection between intrapleural space and atmosphere
-during inhalation as pressure in intrapleural space decreases
-as you try to inhale, air is sucked into intrapleural space,
-as soon as bubble of air gets in pleural membranes separate, lungs move away from body wall, body wall move away from lungs
-now it’s a real place, volume is in there,
-lungs no longer attached to body wall, so cant change pressure, or volume,

Vi is minute inhilation, and Ve is minute exhilation, it matters because the volume you inhale and exhale are different
