New cards

What is the main difference between sheep and human hearts?

sheep have 2 anterior venae cavae, humans have 1 superior venae cavae

2
New cards

In a sheep, what does anterior mean?

towards head

3
New cards

In a sheep, what does posterior/caudal mean?

towards tail

4
New cards

In a sheep, what does ventral mean?

towards front/belly

5
New cards

In a sheep, what does dorsal mean?

towards back

6
New cards

Which chamber has the thickest wall?

left ventricle

7
New cards

Why is the LV wall thickest?

pumps blood through high pressure systemic circuit

8
New cards

Which chamber has the thinnest walls?

right and left atria

9
New cards

Which chamber pumps blood to the lungs?

right ventricle

10
New cards

Which chamber pumps blood to the body?

left ventricle

11
New cards

Which chamber receives blood from the venae cavae?

right atrium

12
New cards

Which chamber receives blood from the pulmonary veins?

left atrium

13
New cards

Which ventricle forms the apex of the heart?

left ventricle

14
New cards

What is the complete pathway of blood through the heart?

venae cavae, ra, tricuspid, rv, pulmonary valve, pulmonary trunk, lungs, pulmonary veins, la, mitral, lv, aortic valve, aorta, body

15
New cards

What type of blood is in the right side of the heart?

deoxygenated

16
New cards

What type of blood is in the left side of the heart?

oxygenated

17
New cards

Which vessels bring deoxygenated blood into the heart?

venae cavae

18
New cards

Which vessels bring oxygenated blood into the heart?

pulmonary veins

19
New cards

Where is the tricuspid valve?

between right atrium and right ventricle

20
New cards

How many cusps does the tricuspid valve have?

3

21
New cards

Where is the mitral valve?

between left atrium and left ventricle

22
New cards

How many cusps does the mitral valve have?

2

23
New cards

Where is the pulmonary valve?

between right ventricle and pulmonary trunk

24
New cards

Where is the aortic valve?

between left ventricle and aorta

25
New cards

Which valves are AV valves?

tricuspid and mitral

26
New cards

Which valves are semilunar valves?

pulmonary and aortic

27
New cards

What happens to the AV valves during ventricular systole?

closed

28
New cards

What happens to the semilunar valves during ventricular systole?

open

29
New cards

What happens to the AV valves during ventricular diastole?

open

30
New cards

What happens to the semilunar valves during ventricular diastole?

closed

31
New cards

What happens to papillary muscles during systole?

contract

32
New cards

What happens to chordae tendineae during systole?

become tight

33
New cards

When are all four valves closed?

during isovolumetric contraction and relaxation

34
New cards

How many times per cardiac cycle are all four valves closed?

2 times

35
New cards

What is the function of chordae tendineae?

prevent av valves from prolapsing into the atria during systole

36
New cards

What do papillary muscles do?

contract during systole to tension the chordae tendinae

37
New cards

Which valves have chordae tendineae?

tricuspid and mitral

38
New cards

Which valves do NOT have chordae tendineae?

pulmonary and aortic

39
New cards

Why don't semilunar valves need chordae tendineae?

pocket shaped cusps naturally close when blood flows backwards

40
New cards

What causes the "lub" heart sound?

closure of tricuspid and mitral valves

41
New cards

What causes the "dup" heart sound?

closure of pulmonary and aortic valves

42
New cards

What is the interventricular septum?

wall separating left and right ventricles

43
New cards

What are trabeculae carneae?

irregular muscular columns on the inside of ventricles

44
New cards

What is the moderator band?

muscular band in the right ventricle containing purkinje fibres

45
New cards

What are auricles?

ear like extensions of the atria

46
New cards

What is the pulmonary trunk?

vessel carrying deoxygenated blood from rv to lungs

47
New cards

What is the aorta?

vessel carrying oxygenated blood from lv to body

48
New cards

What are the venae cavae?

vessels carrying deoxygenated blood into right atrium

49
New cards

What are pulmonary veins?

vessels carrying oxygenated blood into left atrium

50
New cards

What is the fossa ovalis?

adult remnant of the foramen ovale

51
New cards

What did the fetal foramen ovale allow?

blood passes from right atrium to left atrium, bypassing the lungs

52
New cards

What is the ligamentum arteriosum?

adult remnant of the ductus arteriosus

53
New cards

What did the ductus arteriosus do in the fetus?

connected pulmonary trunk to aorta, allowing blood to bypass the lungs

54
New cards

What do coronary arteries supply?

oxygenated blood to heart muscle

55
New cards

What do cardiac veins do?

drain deoxygenated blood from heart muscle

56
New cards
