Pectinate muscle

Makes up the walls of the atria

Myocardium

Muscle that makes up the walls of the ventricles

Chordae tendinae

Attach the cusps of the tricuspid and bicuspid valves to papillary muscles

Sinoatrial node

Pacemaker for the heart

Internodal fibers

Innervate the atria and cause them to contract

Atrioventricular node

Delays the action potential signal to allow the ventricles to fill before contracting

What innervates the interventricular septum and walls of the ventricle

Bundle of His, L and R bundles branches and purkinje fibers

Diaphragm

Separates the thorax and abdomen. Contraction causes inhalation of air into lungs

Ascending sorta supplies o2 blood to the

Heart

Aortic arch supplies o2 blood to the

Head, neck, and upper limbs

Descending thoracic aorta supplies o2 blood to the

Walls of the thorax (intercostal spaces)

Abdominal aorta supplies o2 blood to the

Abdominal organs, pelvis and pelvic organs, lower limbs

Vertebral arteries ascend the neck through

Transverse foramina in the cervical vertebrae then enter the cranium through the foramen magnum

Arterial circle of Willis supplies blood to the external

Brain

External jugular veins drain into

Subclavian veins

Subclavian and internal jugular veins form the

Brachiochephalic veins

4 main named regions of the colon

Right colon, middle colon, left colon, sigmoid colon

R gonadal vein drains into the

Inferior vena cava

The meati do what to air as it heads towards the lungs

Warm, moisten and clean

Circoid cartilage

Only ring shaped cartilage of the larynx

Vocal ligaments attach to this cartilage

Arytenoid cartilage

Glottis some

Superior opening to the larynx

Some structure in the mediastinum include

Heart, coronary vessels, esophagus, phrenic nerves, vague nerves, thymus, thoracic (lymphatic duct) and lymph nodes

Which lung is larger

The right lung is larger than the left lung bc of the location of the heart

Inhalation is

Active (requires muscles)

Normal exhalation is

Passive (no muscles required)

Forceful exhalation is

Active, required innervation and contraction of the internal intercostal muscles to increase thoracic cavity pressure
