Purkinje fibers 3. sinoatrial (SA) node 4. right and left bundle branches 5. contractile cells of cardiac muscle tissue 6. atrioventricular (AV) node

3, 6, 1, 4, 2, 5

Calculate the end-systolic volume (ESV) if the end-diastolic volume (EDV) in a resting heart is 110 ml and stroke volume (SV) is 70 ml.

40 ml

The amount of blood remaining in each ventricle at the end of the ventricular ejection phase is normally about:

50 ml

The aortic valve opens at __________.

B

The right side of the heart pumps deoxygenated blood into __________.

B - pulmonary arteries

The parietal pericardium is labeled __________.

C

The ventricular ejection phase of the cardiac cycle is labeled __________.

C

What action causes the first heart sound heard through a stethoscope?

Closing of the atrioventricular valves

A damaged atrioventricular (AV) bundle or atrioventricular (AV) node will primarily affect the length of the:

P-R interval.

Which part of the electrocardiogram (ECG) would most be affected by abnormally slow depolarization of the ventricles?

QRS wave

Which wave on the electrocardiogram (ECG) represents ventricular depolarization?

QRS wave

Which of the following can be used to measure heart rate?

R-R interval

The main pacemaker of the heart is the __________.

SA node

Which of the following happens immediately after the P wave?

The atria contract

Determine the impact if the connection between the sinoatrial (SA) node and the atrioventricular (AV) node becomes blocked.

The ventricles will contract more slowly.

What activity is occurring in the heart during the Q-T interval on an electrocardiogram (ECG)?

The ventricular cells are undergoing action potentials.

Pressure in the aorta is greater than pressure in the pulmonary trunk; therefore, the left ventricle has to generate a greater pressure than the right ventricle in order to eject blood from the heart.

True

Which of the following decreases heart rate?

acetylcholine

The right and left coronary arteries receive blood from the:

aorta

Where should the left ventricle send blood?

aorta

Which vessel supplies the systemic circuit with oxygenated blood?

aorta

The P wave on an electrocardiogram (ECG) represents the depolarization of cells in the:

atria

What is NOT part of the cardiac conduction system?

atrioventricular (AV) valve

The electrical impulse is __________ as it passes through the AV node, which permits the atria to contract __________ ventricles.

delayed; before

The right side of the heart receives:

deoxygenated blood from the systemic circuit. Submit

Coronary circulation involves the delivery of oxygenated blood to the:

heart

The apex of the heart is __________.

inferior

What characteristic differentiates cardiac muscle cells from skeletal muscle cells?

intercalated discs

As ventricular systole begins, all four heart valves are closed during the:

isovolumetric contraction phase.

Which heart chamber receives blood from the pulmonary veins?

left atrium

The cardiac chamber with the thickest wall is the __________.

left ventricle

Which chamber pumps oxygenated blood out the aorta to the systemic circuit?

left ventricle

The pulmonary circuit involves blood flow from the heart to the:

lungs

The heart is situated in the middle of the thoracic cavity in a region known as the:

mediastinum

The cells that rhythmically and spontaneously generate action potentials in the heart are called __________.

pacemaker cells

What muscles, present in the ventricles, anchor the atrioventricular valves by tendon-like chords called chordae tendineae?

papillary muscles

During what part of the action potential will calcium ions enter the contractile cell?

plateau phase

The degree of stretch experienced by the sarcomeres in the ventricle cells before they contract is called:

preload

The AV valves close when __________.

pressure in the ventricles increases

What is the function of the valves in the heart?

prevent backflow of blood through the heart

Which vessel is guarded by a semilunar valve at its base?

pulmonary trunk

Which of the following vessels carries oxygenated blood?

pulmonary vein

What vessel(s) deliver oxygenated blood to the left atrium?

pulmonary veins

Blood in the right ventricle arrived from the:

right atrium

Which chamber receives blood from the superior and inferior vena cavae?

right atrium

The area shaded in orange receives blood supply from the __________.

right coronary artery

Which heart chamber pumps unoxygenated blood out the pulmonary trunk?

right ventricle

What normally serves as the pacemaker of the entire heart?

sinoatrial (SA) node

What two values are needed in order to calculate cardiac output (CO) for a ventricle?

stroke volume (SV) and heart rate (HR)

The vessels that deliver oxygen to the tissues of the body are part of the __________.

systemic circuit

The highlighted portion of this ECG trace corresponds to __________.

the duration of atrial depolarization and AV node delay

What valve prevents the backflow of blood from the right ventricle into the right atrium?

tricuspid valve

Blood in the right atrium should travel next past the:

tricuspid valve and into the right ventricle.

The left ventricle has greater muscle mass than the right ventricle since it pumps against greater resistance.

true

The heart is actually (one, two, or three) pumps?

two pumps

Both the left and right atria receive blood from:

veins

Blood from the systemic circuit returns to the heart via the __________.

venae cavae
