s
Electrical Conduction
Provided by autorhythmic cells (within the heart)
-Generate action potentials without external signals
These cells make up the conduction system (SA node, AV node, bundle branches, Purkinje fibers).
They set the heart’s basic rhythm.
“Self-excitable” → can depolarize spontaneously due to unstable resting membrane potential (pacemaker potential)
Intrinsic stimulation
Extrinsic stimulation
Electrical Conduction
Outside the heart.
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) and hormones (HM) influence
They don’t create the rhythm, but they modify rate and strength of contraction:
Sympathetic stimulation = ↑ heart rate and force.
Parasympathetic stimulation (via vagus nerve) = ↓ heart rate.
Hormones (like epinephrine, norepinephrine, thyroid hormone) → also increase rate/force
Intrinsic stimulation
Extrinsic stimulation

Cardiac Cycle
1) Electrical signal from sinoatrial node (SA) triggers contraction of atria
2) Impulse delayed at atrioventricular node (AV) ventricles fill
(tricuspid and bicuspid open)
3) Ventricles begin to contract upon stimulation by atrioventricular node (AV), AV closes
(tricuspid and bicuspid close)
4) Ventricular excitation complete, ventricles fully contracted
(blood pass through Pulmonary and Aortic semilunar valve)
5) Ventricles relax, Semilunar valves close

Terms
-Process by which gases are exchanged between the atmosphere and the lung alveoli
Pulmonary ventilation (breathing)
Air moves into the lungs when-
Air moves out of the lungs when-
Negative pressure
Inspiration (inhalation)
Terms
-when the pressure inside the lungs is less than the air pressure in the atmosphere
Pulmonary ventilation (breathing)
Air moves into the lungs when-
Air moves out of the lungs when-
Negative pressure
Inspiration (inhalation)
Terms
-when the pressure inside the lungs is greater than the air pressure in the atmosphere
Pulmonary ventilation (breathing)
Air moves into the lungs when-
Air moves out of the lungs when-
Negative pressure
Inspiration (inhalation)
Terms
-Ventilate lungs by _________ breathing, which pulls air into the lungs
Pulmonary ventilation (breathing)
Air moves into the lungs when-
Air moves out of the lungs when-
Negative pressure
Inspiration (inhalation)
Terms
-Pressure of the alveoli must become lower than the pressure in the atmosphere
-This is done by increasing the volume (size of lung)
-Lungs: expand
-Ribs: move upward and outward
-Diaphragm: flattens and moves downward
Pulmonary ventilation (breathing)
Air moves into the lungs when-
Air moves out of the lungs when-
Negative pressure
Inspiration (inhalation)
Terms
-Pressure and volume of gas have an inverse relationship
-Volume increase, Pressure decrease
-Volume decrease, Pressure increase
(when the temperature is held constant)
Boyle's Law
Pressure before inspiration
At the beginning of inspiration
Diaphragm
Expiration (exhalation)
Terms
-The air pressure inside the lungs equals atmospheric presure
(760 mm Hg, or 1 atm at sea level)
Boyle's Law
Pressure before inspiration
At the beginning of inspiration
Diaphragm
Expiration (exhalation)
Terms
1) Diaphragm contracts
2) Chest expands
3) Lungs are pulled outward
4) Alveolar pressure decreases
Boyle's Law
Pressure before inspiration
At the beginning of inspiration
Diaphragm
Expiration (exhalation)
Terms
1) Diaphragm relaxes
2) Chest contracts
3) Lungs recoil inward
4) Alveolar pressure increases
(forcing air out until alveolar pressure = atmospheric pressure)
-achieved by a pressure gradient, but the gradient is reversed from that of inhalation
Boyle's Law
Pressure before inspiration
At the beginning of inspiration
Diaphragm
Expiration (exhalation)
Terms
-most important muscle of inspiration
-Forms the floor of the thoracic cavity
-Contraction causes it to flatten
Boyle's Law
Pressure before inspiration
At the beginning of inspiration
Diaphragm
Expiration (exhalation)
Terms
-passive process because no muscular contractions are involved
-it occurs due to elastic recoil of the chest wall and lungs
