Cardiovascular System
Across
- 3. Node that leads activity for other pacemakers; has 70 AC/min
- 5. 88% of blood flows to _____ muscles when exercising
- 7. Vessels that carry blood from the heart
- 8. Bulk flow into the tissues
- 10. Pathway that conducts the pacemaker activity from the right to left atrium
- 13. Volume of blood pumped out by each ventricle per beat
- 14. Cells that display pacemaker activity and initiate action potentials
- 15. Abnormal heart sounds
- 17. Valve that does not close completely and causes swishing sound
- 21. Valve that does not open completely and causes whistling sound
- 23. Blood pressure above 140/90 mm Hg
- 25. Phase that results from slow Ca2+ entry coupled with reduced efflux of K+
Down
- 1. Tendinous fibers attached to inside edges of AV valves that prevent eversion
- 2. External membrane covering the heart and is filled with pericardial fluid to prevent friction
- 4. Inability of cardiac output to meet demands of the body
- 6. Vessels that carry blood to the heart
- 9. Bulk flow into capillaries
- 11. Middle layer of heart wall
- 12. The second heart sound “dup” comes from the closure of ______ valves
- 16. ______ circulation is used by the right ventricle to pump blood to lungs
- 18. Pathway that conducts pacemaker activity from SA nodes to AV nodes
- 19. ______ circulation is used by the left ventricle to pump blood to body tissues
- 20. Relaxation and Filling
- 22. Smallest diameter vessels formed when arterioles branch
- 24. Contraction and emptying
