5711130084 | Tricuspid valve is | three cusps | 3 | |
5711138021 | Bicuspid valve is | two cusps | 4 | |
5711148360 | 3 areas that dump blood into the atrium: | coronary sinus, superior vena cava, inferior vena cava | 5 | |
5711164204 | Pulmonary is | the only place in the body that carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium | 6 | |
5711180974 | Right side of heart consists (Lungs) | right atrium, right ventricle takes low content of oxygen blood from the body and into the lungs for oxygenation | 7 | |
5711226043 | Left side of the heart consists (Body) | left atrium, left ventricle take high content of oxygen blood from the lungs and into the rest of the body | 8 | |
5711257939 | Top part of the heart consists | atrial kick weaker pump | 9 | |
5711263453 | Bottom part of the heart consists | pulmonary and systematic circuits stronger pump | 10 | |
5711278947 | Blood pH | 7.35 | 11 | |
5711293442 | Atrial fibrillation | no atrial kick hypertension, rapid firing through pulmonary veins, clot formation in the atrium | 12 | |
5711315753 | AV (atrioventricular valves) | allow blood to flow from atria to ventricles | 13 | |
5711326539 | SA (semilunar valves) | allow blood to flow from the ventricles into the outflow vessels | 14 | |
5711383132 | chordea tendineae | and contract to prevent inversion or prolapse of these valves on systole (or ventricular contraction) attached to papillary muscle | 15 | |
5711576662 | papillary muscle | prevents valves from trauma, slowly closing them instead of slamming them | 16 | |
5711591570 | each cusp makes up | 1/3 of the valves | 17 | |
5712325653 | arteries | carry oxygenated blood, thick because they are under a lot pressure and exposed to high pressures and friction forces | 18 | |
5712325654 | veins | carry deoxygenated blood, thin because they are exposed to low pressure and minimal friction forces | 19 | |
5712341746 | epicardium | thin, transparent outer layer | 20 | |
5712351925 | myocardium | thick middle layer, is composed of cardiac muscle | 21 | |
5712393128 | endocardium | simple squamous epithelium | 22 | |
5712383817 | ventricle syncytium | squeezing blood from the apex to the outflow vessels | 23 | |
5712370861 | atrial muscle syncytium | contracts to force blood into the ventricles | 24 | |
5712424628 | cardiac output | heart rate x stroke volume | 25 | |
5712443166 | cardioaccelatory system is found | medulla carotid body and in the arch of the aorta rely information about blood pressure and blood flow to CAS (cardio acc sys) | 26 | |
5712886931 | heart murmur | abnormal sound that consists of a flow noise that is heard before, between, or after the lubb-dupp or that may mask the normal sounds entirely | 27 | |
5712912791 | systole | contraction | 28 | |
5712912793 | diastole | relaxation | 29 | |
5712939449 | P wave | atrial depolarization | 30 | |
5712944932 | P-Q wave | time it takes for atrial kick to fill the ventricles | 31 | |
5712960489 | QRS wave | ventricular depolarization (pumping) and atrial repolarization (filling) | 32 | |
5712974278 | S-T wave | time it takes to empty the ventricles before they repolarize (fill) | 33 | |
5713006382 | brachial artery | is where you check blood pressure | 34 | |
5713012273 | normal blood pressure | 120/80 | 35 | |
5713029636 | during atrial systole | the ventricles are relaxed | 36 | |
5713039523 | during ventricle diastole | the atria are relaxed | 37 |

Need Notes?
While we strive to provide the most comprehensive notes for as many high school textbooks as possible, there are certainly going to be some that we miss. Drop us a note and let us know which textbooks you need. Be sure to include which edition of the textbook you are using! If we see enough demand, we'll do whatever we can to get those notes up on the site for you!
