NAME ______Use this sheet for answers WRITE NEATLY
1. Fill-in in the spaces provided
The heart is cone-shaped and located within the (1) cavity. The apex (1) ______
of the heart rests on the (2). The (3, 4, 5) vessels empty blood into the (2) ______
right atrium. The pulmonary trunk and pulmonary arteries carry (3) ______
blood to the (6). The four pulmonary veins empty into the (7) chamber. (4) ______
The (8) chambers can be thought of as receiving chambers and (5) ______
the (9) as sending chambers. The branches off the ascending aorta which (6) ______
supply the muscles of the heart are the (10) arteries. The (11) trunk is the first (7) ______
branch off the arch of the aorta. The function of the pericardial fluid (8) ______
is to decrease (12) during heart activity. The myocardium of the heart (9) ______
is composed of (13) tissue. (10) ______
(11) ______(12) ______(13) ______
2. Fill in the spaces provided.
Contraction of ventricles is called (1) and relaxation called (2). (1)______
The first heart sound (lub) occurs due to closure of the (3) valves (2) ______
and the closure of the (4) valves is the second sound (dup). (3) ______
When the atria contract the (5) valves are open and (6) valves closed.(4) ______
When the ventricles contract the (7) valves are open and (8) closed. (5) ______
Abnormal heart sounds, or (9), may indicate valve problems. (6) ______
(7) ______(8) ______(9) ______
3. Fill in blood flow through the heart:
The superior vena cava, ______, and ______carry deoxygenated blood to the ______chamber of the heart. Blood then flows through the ______valve to the ______(chamber). When this chamber contracts, blood flows through the ______valve to the pulmonary ______(vessel) and pulmonary arteries to the lungs. Blood becomes oxygenated at the lungs. From the lungs, blood flows through the 4 ______(vessels) to the ______(chamber). This massive chamber contracts and sends oxygenated blood through the ______valve to the aorta and its branches.
