Cardiac Conduction System The cardiac conduction system includes the __________ (____) ______ and __________ (____) ______. Each cardiac myocyte has an intrinsic ability to ____________________ and ____________________ electrical impulses from cell to cell without nerve stimulation. The _____ __________ is the normal pacemaker of the heart. Innervation of the Heart The sympathetic influence is achieved by release of ____________________ and ____________________. Sympathetic nerves stimulate the chambers to beat _______________ and with greater _______________ force of contraction. The parasympathetic influence is achieved via ____________________ release from the __________ nerve. Parasympathetic nerves _______________ the heart rate primarily through their influence on the _____ _________.
Anterior surface of the heart showing the great vessels and coronary arteries.
Coronary Veins The coronary venous circulation includes: _______________ _____________, __________ ________, and _____________ _________. The great cardiac vein, along with the small and middle cardiac veins, drain into the ______________ _________, emptying into the _____________ _____________.
Neural Reflexes and Circulatory Control Baroreceptor reflex are mechanoreceptors that detect changes in ______________. What are the reflexes known as that maintain blood pressure? _________________ What type of activation leads to increased blood pressure? ____________________ Which type of activation decreases blood pressure? _____________________ When signals are sent to the medullas cardiovascular center that inhibit parasympathetic activity leading to increased heart rate, what is this reflex known as? __________________ What reflex reacts to changes in pH status and blood oxygen tension? _________________________ The________________ maneuver increases intrathoracic pressure by forced expiration against a closed glottis.
Cardiac Cycle Write the correct term or definition. The contraction of the right and left atria pushing blood into the ventricles. ______________________ Atrial diastole: ___________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Contraction of the right and left ventricles pushing blood into the pulmonary arteries and aorta. _________________ Ventricular diastole: ______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Tension in the ventricular wall at the end of diastole. It reflects the venous filling pressure that fills the left ventricle during diastole: ______________ The forces that impede blood flow out of the heart, especially peripheral vasculature pressure, aorta compliance, and the mass and blood viscosity. ______________________ Stroke Volume (SV): ______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Normal SV ranges from _____ to _____ L/min depending on age, sex, and activity. Cardiac Output (CO): ______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Normal CO adult male at rest: _____ L/min. Women produce ____ CO than males. During exercise, it can to ______ Venous return o o The amount of blood that returns to the _______ atrium each minute Venous return must be ___ CO when averaged over time because the cardio system is closed loop.

An abnormal amount of white blood cells, termed ________________, can indicate _____________ or _____________. What type of WBC protects the body against infection by ingesting bacteria and debris? _______________________ Lymphocytes consists of: o T-Lymphocytes: ______________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ o B-Lymphocytes: ______________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ Monocytes: _____________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ What WBC kills parasites, destroy cancer cells, and are involved in allergic responses? _________________________ Basophils: ______________________________________________________________________________________
ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY OF THE RESPIRATORY SYSTEM Ribs 1-7 are called: ___________________; Ribs 8-10: _________________; Ribs 11-12:_________________ What are the three principle muscles of respiration? o ______________________, ______________________,______________________ The upper respiratory tract consists of the: o ______________________, ______________________,______________________ The right lung has ______ lobes. The left lung has _____ lobes. There are _____ bronchopulmonary segments in the right lung and _____ segments in the left lung. The right lungs main bronchus gives rise to the superior, middle, and inferior ____________ _______________. The left lungs main bronchus divides into the superior _____________ ______________ corresponding to the upper and lower lobes. Oxygen diffuses across the _______________________ __________________ into the RBC in lung capillaries where it combines with ___________________ to be transported back to the heart. Carbon dioxide diffuses in what direction Same or Opposite? The membranous serous sac that covers the lungs is called ______________ _________________. Under abnormal circumstances, the pleural space may contain air termed __________________________, blood termed _______________________, pus or increased amounts of serous fluid, which compress the lung and cause _______________________ ________________________.
