  1. 3. Hormone which is a positive inotrope
  2. 5. The pressure and length of these is what effects preload
  3. 7. Sum of factors which effect end - diastolic volume and fibre length of ventricles
  4. 9. The ability to the heart to contract
  5. 10. Can effect venous return when a person is standing
  6. 11. The rate at which deoxygenated blood returns back to the heart
  7. 12. Sum of factors which put pressure on ventricle walls. The load at which ventricles must pump against
  8. 13. The amount of times your heart beats in a minute
Down
  1. 1. ions These are present during acidosis and are a negative inotrope
  2. 2. The total amount of blood pumped from the heart
  3. 4. Something that affects the force of contraction of the heart
  4. 6. X's law which describes the relationship between force of ventricle contraction and ventricle fibre length
  5. 8. Amount of blood pumped from the left ventricle every time your heart beats
  6. 12. Pressure has to be lower in this vessel compared to the heart for blood to move out of the heart
