hondros pn bio 117 exam 3

1. ischemia: lack of blood supply

2. angina: chest pain

3. myocardial infarction: heart attack

4. heart valves: prevent back flow of blood

5. types of heart valves: atrioventricular and semilunar

6. atrioventricular valves: between atria and ventricles

7. semilunar valves: between ventricles and arteries

8. s1 sounds - lubb: AV valve closing sounds

9. s2 sound - dubb: semilunar valve closing sounds

10. right coronary artery: artery vascularizing the right side of the heart

11. left coronary artery: artery supplying blood to the heart tissue

12. Chambers of the heart: right atrium, right ventricle, left atrium, left ventricle

13. great vessels of the heart: venae cavae, pulmonary artery, pulmonary vein, aorta

14. pulmonary circulation: flow of blood from the heart to the lungs and back to the heart

15. systemic circulation: circulation that supplies blood to all the body except to the lungs

16. cardium-: heart

17. peri-: surrounding, around

18. epi-: outside, outer

19. myo-: muscle, middle

20. endo-: in, within

21. fibrous pericardium: outermost pericardial membrane

22. blood on the right side of the heart: bad blood / deoxygenated blood

23. blood on the left side of the heart: good blood / oxygen rich blood

24. aorta artery: provides blood to body and head

25. Artery function: Carry blood away from the heart

26. left ventricle: receives oxygen-rich blood from the left atrium

27. right ventricle: pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs

28. pulmonary veins: Deliver oxygen rich blood from the lungs to the left atrium

29. myocardium: heart muscle / allows the heart to act as a pump

30. superior vena cava: receives blood from the head and arms and chest and empties into the right atrium of the

heart

46. Parasympathetic activity: slows heart rate

47. Cardiac Output (CO): Amount of blood pumped in 1 minute (~5 L)

48. CO =? x ?: heart rate HR x stroke volume SV

49. end diastolic volume: the amount of blood in each ventricle at the end of its relaxation period, about 130 mL

50. Preload: another name for end-diastolic volume

51. Starlings Law: As SV increase, VR increase

52. afterload: The force or resistance against which the heart pumps

53. what causes afterload: blood pressure

54. backward left sided heart failure: Fluid backs up into lungs / poor left ventric- ular function

55. forward left sided heart failure: decreases blood flow to systemic circulation / poor left ventricular

56. backward right sided heart failure: blood backs up into veins that drains blood to the right heart

57. intercostal arteries: Carry blood through ribs

58. renal artery: blood vessel that carries blood to the kidney

59. hepatic artery: artery that leads from the celiac trunk to the liver

60. carotid artery: The major artery that supplies blood to the head and brain.

61. subclavian artery: Both a left and right, blood vessels that supply blood to the shoulders and upper limbs.

62. axillary artery: artery that carries oxygenated blood to the axilla (armpit) area

63. radial artery: The major artery in the forearm; it is palpable at the wrist on the thumb side.

64. femoral artery: the major artery supplying the leg

65. dorsalis pedis artery: artery that supplies blood to the foot

66. posterior tibial artery: artery supplying the foot, behind the medial ankle

67. brachial artery: the major artery of the upper arm

68. facial artery: supplies blood to the face

69. median cubital vein: the first choice for venipuncture

70. Circle of Willis: A circle of arteries at the base of the brain that supply blood to the brain

71. left and right internal carotid artieries location: base of the brain

72. liver circulation: carries unoxygenated blood from organs of digestion

73. in liver circulation hepatic vein: carries blood from liver to the IVC

74. in liver circulation the hepatic artery: carries oxygenated blood to the liver

75. fetal circulation: the system of blood vessels and structures through which blood moves in a fetus
