What is diastole?

Relaxation

Another name for the tricuspid valve is?

Right AV valve

Where is the pulmonary semilunar valve located?

Right side of the heart

What is the fx of the interatrial septum?

Separates the two atria from eachother

What is the fx of the intervertebral septum?

What fluid is found in the pericardial cavity?

Serous fluid or pericardial fluid

What lies inside of the fibrous pericardium?

Serous membrane

What is cardiac muscle?

Short branched fibers with a single centrally located nucleus, obvious striations and intercalated disks.

What structure forms the endothelium?

Simple squamous epithelium

What structures form the endocardium?

Simple squamous epithelium with a basement membrane
