- Check all the INCORRECT statements. The end-diastolic volume is the volume of blood left in the ventricle after contraction. Isovolumetric contraction starts with the B closure of the atrioventricular valves. Intercalated discs cause heart muscle cells to function as a syncytium. In the pulmonary circulation, veins carry oxygen-poor blood. Semilunar valves control blood flow between E each atrium and it corresponding ventricle. In the pulmonary circulation, blood leaves the F heart from the left ventricle. During the cardiac cycle, the ventricular systole precedes the atrial systole. Isovolumetric relaxation ends with the opening (H) of the atrioventricular valves. The ventricle spends more time in diastole than in systole. In the systemic circulation, blood enters the heart through the right atrium.arrow_forwardYou are conducting an exercise test, and the ability to read the ECG progressively gets worse. By Stage 3 you are unable to read the ECG anymore. What do you do?

- Which one of the following statements is incorrect? There are no valves in arteries. the walls of veins are thin. the walls of capillaries are thick. veins carry blood into the heart.arrow_forwardPoor quality capillaries can rupture and bleed small amounts into the tissue. On the surface it looks like several tiny red dots. This is called ___. embolus varicose veins petechia cicatrixarrow_forwardChoose all the statements that are correct. When the heart beats, first the right side of the heart contracts, and then the left side of the heart contracts. That is one heartbeat. The sympathetic nervous system speeds up the heart rate and the parasympathetic system slows down heart rate. M Bradycardia is when the heart beats faster than normal. The SA node is the pacemaker of the heart. Coronary arteries deliver blood to the muscle of the heart. A heart attack is a myocardial infarction. The ECG (EKG) has a QRS wave that represents ventricular depolarization (the message to tell the ventricle to contract. The heart needs nerve stimulation in order to contract.arrow_forward
- Use the word bank below to complete the following statements: Tissue capillary higher lower oxygen carbon dioxide waste nutrients On the arteriole side of a capillary bed, the capillary hydrostatic pressure is than the blood colloidal osmotic pressure. This causes a net movement of liquid into the This liquid contains a lot of gas and which move down a concentration gradient towards local cells that are continually consuming those resources. On the venule side of the capillary bed, the capillary hydrostatic pressure is than the blood colloidal osmotic pressure, resulting in a net movement of liquid into the . After passing over local tissues, the composition of the liquid has changed, and now contains a lot of gas and Only (write a number and a % sign) of fluid returns to the circulatory system. The remaining portion of fluid is collected by the lymphatic system.arrow_forwardA patient has a condition in which the SA node is no longer functioning. The atrioventricular (AV) node is now setting the pace and rhythm for the heart. What difference would you expect to see in the ECG of this patient?

- The English physiologist William Harvey made all of the following circulatory discoveries except: the function of valves in the veins is to direct blood flow back to the heart both pulmonary and systemic blood pressure comes from pumping of the heart blood in the veins is under less pressure than is blood in the arteries arterial pressure is lowest during systole and greatest during diastole the function of the vertebrate heart is to pump blood continuouslyarrow_forwardwhich of the following is the first to occur during the period of ventricular systole?
