1 . Starting at the ejection phase, put the following steps of the
cardiac cycle in order from first to last. - Isovolumetric
relaxation
- AV valve opens
- isovolumetric contraction
- aortic valve closes
- filling
- AV valve closes
- aortic valve opens: 1. aortic valve closes
2. Isovolumetric relaxation
3. AV valve opens
4. filling
5. AV valve closes
6. isovolumetric contraction
7. aortic valve opens
2. Select all of the statements that are true regarding the
ventricular pressure volume relationship.
- Since the heart is compliant, increased preload can result in
increased stroke volume.
- Decreased compliance implies that for the same volume,
pressure in higher. - Afterload is set by the end-diastolic volume
and determines the point when the atrial-ventricular valve
opens.
- Sympathetic stimulation increases contractility and stroke
volume.

4. Provided below are the pressures in the left atrium, left
ventricle, and aorta at a given point during the cardiac cycle of
three different NORMAL patients. Based on the three pressures,
what phase of the cardiac cycle is patient 1 in? (Filling, Ejection,
Isovolumetric Relaxation, Isovolumetric Contraction )
Based on the three pressures, what phase of the cardiac cycle is
patient 2 in? (Filling, Isovolumetric Relaxation, Ejection,
