a)

Pumps oxygenated blood to the whole body

Prevents backflow of blood into the atria

2.

5.

Aorta

10.

Describe the sequence of the cardiac cycle, including the changes in pressure and valve movements.

Atrial Systole (0.1 sec): ​ (a)   contract, increasing atrial pressure, pushing blood into ​ (b)   . AV valves are open, and semilunar valves remain closed.

Ventricular Systole (0.3 sec): Ventricles ​ (c)   , increasing ventricular pressure, closing ​ (d)   valves (“lub” sound) and opening semilunar valves. Blood is pumped into the pulmonary artery and aorta.

Atrial and Ventricular Diastole (0.4 sec): Both atria and ventricles ​ (e)   , allowing blood to fill the atria from the veins. Semilunar valves close (“dup” sound) to prevent backflow.

Choose from the below words
Atria
ventricles
contract
AV
relax
11.

Identify the major chambers of the heart and blood vessels

12.

What is the function of the sinoatrial (SA) node in the heart?

a)

To pump oxygenated blood to the lungs

b)

To act as the heart’s pacemaker, generating electrical impulses

c)

To prevent blood backflow into the ventricles

d)

To pump deoxygenated blood to the left atrium

13.
Which number is the pulmonary artery?
a)
4
b)
5
c)
6
d)
8
14.

a)
All over the body
b)
The upper half of the body, head and arms
c)
The lower half of the body, legs and abdomen
d)
The lungs
15.
What does letter D represent?
a)
aorta
b)
left atrium
c)
left ventricle
d)
right atrium
16.

Which label is representing the Bundle of His?

a)

A

b)

C

c)

D

d)

E

17.

Identify the major chambers of the heart and blood vessels

18.

Explain why the left ventricle has a thicker muscular wall compared to the right ventricle.

The left ventricle has to pump ​ (a)   blood to the ​ (b)   body through the systemic circulation, which requires a stronger ​ (c)   . In contrast, the right ventricle only pumps blood to the nearby ​ (d)   , which requires less force.

Choose from the below words
oxygenated
entire
contraction
lungs
local
veins
deoxygenated
partial
relaxation
