no murmur
semilunars close
dup
bicuspid
left atrioventricular (mitral) valve
layer of leukocytes and platelets
buffy coat
plasma cell
the activated B cell that produes antibodies
norepinephrine released from sympathetic postganglionic neurons causes
increased contractility and heart rate
thin filaments (actin)
six of these are organized in a circle
triscuspid
right atrioventricular valve
macrophage
immune cell presents bacteria antigen to the B and T lymphocytes
the dicrotic notch in the aortic pressure is due to
sudden elastic recoil of elastic aorta after valves close
cardiac muscle
is striated, has intercalated discs, long duration action potential that plateaus before it repolarizes, is autorhymic and influenced by the autonomic NS, has drifting resting potential
fibrin
the final clotting factor that forms the entrapping meshwork
smoth muscle
type of muscle that is not striated
type II white muscle fibers
glycolytic, fatiguable, anaerobic, fast, becomes larger with high resistance training
depolarization of the ventricles is associated with what electrical event
QRS complex
the frank-starling law can be applied to deduce that
greater venous filling and greater end-diastolic volume increases stroke volume
monocytes
precursor leukocytes to wandering macrophages
killer T cells
most likely to attack cancer cells
anemia
inadequate amounts of erythrocytes
thick filaments (myosin)
crossbridges are a part of these proteins
coronary vessels run in which layer
epicardium/visceral pericardium
myofibrils
these increase in number with weight training

secreted by macrophages

type of muscle that is not involuntary
pulmonary artery or trunk
the output vessel of the right ventricl
leaky valve
swishing sound
parasympathetic stimulation of the heart occurs by way of
X. Vagus nerve
muscle fibers
these are multinucleated muscle cells
type I red muscle fibers
aerobic, oxidative, 1/10 the fore of the other, has more myglobin, has high capillary density
