The fluid between the layers of the mesothelium allows the hearts to slide
against the body wall with reduced friction. - ANSWER true
volume does not change, pressure decreases - ANSWER isovolumetric
relaxation
volume does not change, pressure increases - ANSWER isovolumetric
contraction
cells that line the inside of the heart and valves - ANSWER endothelial
pericardium attached to the heart - ANSWER visceral pericardium
at point C on the Pv graph, what happens: - ANSWER The ventricular
pressure is higher than the aortic/pulmonary pressure
The aortic valve opens
Z-lines _______________ during ventricular contraction (systole). - ANSWER
shorten
Long term (months to years) increases in the pressure required to open the
pulmonary valve would be expected to increase the thickness of the
myocardium in the: - ANSWER right ventricle
, What is the route of blood flow in a closed system? - ANSWER Artery,
arteriole, capillary, venule, vein
The coronary arteries fill ______________. - ANSWER during diastole
contraction of the heart squeezes the coronary arteries closed during systole
If resistance goes up, but flow remains the same, what happens to the pressure
in a tube? - ANSWER pressure goes up delta P=flow x resistance
pressure and resistance are proportional when flow is constant
Stroke volume is dependant on: - ANSWER Edv and Esv
An increase in end diastolic volume (EDV): - ANSWER an increase in stroke
volume
an increase in ventricular contraction
this will increase length of sarcomeres and allow for greater contraction of the
ventricle

The site in lymph nodes where B lymphocytes reside is the - ANSWER
germinal center
Which of the following is not a symptom of inflammation? - ANSWER
bleeding
