In your point of view as a senior high school stem student, is it important that we should be conscious of our health? How will you raise an awareness on the seriousness of this disease called hypertension?
Explain the association between atherosclerosis and ischemic heart disease. Imagine that you were the Surgeon General of the United States. What types of programs would you advocate to decrease heart disease? Do you think that as a society we should invest resources into the development of stemcell therapies for more effective treatment of myocardial infarction?

- 5.According to Steven et al., (2006), hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a medical terminology used to describe a spectrum of congenital heart malfomation exhbiting an array of underdeveloped structures in the left side of the heart. How does this affect the anatomical and physiological function of the left side of the heart? Read and analyze the question and choices CAREFULLY; more importantly, ALWAYS CHOOSE the BEST answer. The heart will have a difficulty in pumping oxygenated blood to all parts of the body The heart is bound to enlarge by loosening its myocardium after a few years. The heart will not be able to absorb oxygen from the lungs. The heart will exert too much pressure to deliver oxygen-poor blood to the lungs.arrow_forwardPut these autorhythmic cells into the correct order for conveying electrical signals through a normal heart. 1. AV Bundle 2. internodal pathway 3. Purkinje fibers 4. atrioventricular node 5. sinoatrial nodes 6. left and right bundle branches 3, 6, 1, 4, 2, 5 5, 2, 4, 1, 6, 3 5, 4, 1, 6, 2, 3 5, 2, 1, 6, 4, 3arrow_forward5. Describe the conductions of electrical signals through the heart. answer this question with a narrative of the structures involved in initiating and coordinating the contraction of the heart. You need to include the function of each structure. Mention pacemaker cells, the sinoatrial node, atrioventricular node, internodal pathway, bundle of His, bundle branches, Purkinje fibers, first degree block, second degree block, and third degree block.arrow_forward
- 10. If given a diagram of the heart, such as the one below, be able to identify each of the following parts of the conduction system: • sinoatrial (SA) node • • . spread of SA through the 2 atria atrioventricular (AV) node ● • • • 11. Trace the flow of impulses through the conduction system (step by step) and include at what points the following happen: 2 atria contract together AV node delay occurs AV bundle (=bundle of His) bundle branches Purkinje fibers Focus Farrow_forwardASAP! Conduction of a neural signal through the walls of the ventricles of the heart is accomplished along: A. Interatrial Fibers B. The sinoatrial node C. The AV bundle D. The purkinje fibersarrow_forward8. Define heart attack and infarct. How does atherosclerotic plaque affect the heart? 12. Explain how cardiac muscle cells in the SA node produce action potentials spontaneously and why the SA node is the heart’s pacemaker. 13. What is the function of the conduction system of the heart? Starting with the SA node, describe the route of an action potential as it goes through the conduction system of the heart.arrow_forward
- 4.4. On the circulatory system, what are the correct statements? PHYSIOLOGY_advanced (OJO) Pacemaker cells of the heart are neurons with a stable resting membrane potential. Pacemaker cells of the sinus node, located at the left atrium, determine the heart beat frequency. Cardiac output is a function of the heart beat frequency and the stroke volume. The Frank-Starling mechanism allows coupling of the venous return with the stroke volume. Within each capillary bed there is a net loss of liquid to the extracellular space; this imbalance depends on the hydrostatic pressure and the colloid osmotic pressure gradients.arrow_forwardHello, May I get help please!! Scenario: Angie J has a medical condition where she has begun developing sympathetic neurons and α -receptors on smooth muscle around the arterioles that bring nutrients and oxygen to cardiac muscle cells (not the blood that runs through the chambers, that other 4% I mentioned). The medical doctors have told her she needs to be really careful about avoiding fight-or-flight responses, and she asks you why. You tell Angie that, UNLIKE IN OTHER PEOPLE, any sympathetic activity she has will most directly... (see image)arrow_forward1. You are a lead engineer in a cGMP facility that develops and delivers tissue engineering constructs for tissue regeneration. You have been asked to develop an injectable tissue engineering solution for regenerating heart tissue following myocardial infarction. Describe an injectable tissue engineering solution to regenerate the damaged heart tissue by considering the following and give a brief explanation for your choices: i) Description of large animal model for myocardial infarction, including animal and methodarrow_forward
- 1. Age-related changes in the heart’s electrical conduction system such as fibrosis and loss of specialized cells and fibers in the SA node and fibrosis of AV node and left anterior fascicle contribute to the development of (choose all that apply): a. Normal heart rate at rest b. Increase in atrial ectopy (irregular, rapid heartbeats) c. Increase in episodes of bradycardia (slow heart rate) d. Increased incidence of heart block. 2. Describe 3 age-related changes in the lungs that have a negative impact on preventing lung infections.arrow_forwardII. Induction similar or relatea, the fourth does not belong with the other three.
