What is a Ventricular Systole?

• contraction in the ventricules
• contraction of arterials
• ventricular blood flow
• veins 

Largest artery of the body.

• Intercostal arteries
• Bronchial arteries
• Aorta
• Abdominal aorta

What is the Superior Vena Cava?

• It separates the left ventricle from the right ventricle.
• It originates from small mounds of muscle tissue, the papillary muscles, which project inward from the walls of the ventricle.
• Are part of the network of superficial veins of the foot and leg.

What do the coronary arteries?

• supply oxygen-rich blood to the entire heart muscle
•  transport blood containing oxygen

• inferior

After blood is oxygenated in the lungs it uses which vessel(s) to transport blood from the lungs to the heart? 

• pulmonary veins
• respiratory arteries

• superior vena cava

Pulmonary circulation:

• circulates oxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs
• circulates deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs
• circulates oxygenated blood from the lungs to the body
• circulates deoxygenated blood from the lungs to the body

What is Systemic Circulation?

• The part of the Circulatory System that sends the blood from the heart to all of the other parts of the body.
• The part of the Circulatory System that sends blood from the heart to the lungs and back again
• A part that helps to clot blood

What is the function of the sinoatrial node?

• stops electrical impulses in the heart
• begins electrical impulses in the heart
• it continues the electrical impulse in the heart
• it does not affect speed of electical impulses in the heart
