Explanation / Answer

24) The great cardiac vein and middle cardiac vein empty into a venous cavity called the

ANSWER IS: coronary sinus

EXPLANATION:

The coronary sinus collects blood from the heart muscle and delivers less-oxygenated blood to the right atrium.

25) the right side of the heart acts as pump for the

ANSWER Is :pulmonary circulation

EXPLANATION:

It receives deoxygenated blood from the body and sends it to the lungs for oxygenation.


26) The chordae tendineae

ANSWER IS:

connect the flaps of the AV valves to the papillary muscles.

EXPLANATION:

Chordae tendineae connect the papillary muscles to the tricuspid valve and the mitral valve in the heart. It holds the atrioventricular valves while the heart is pumping blood.


27) The skeleton of the heart

ANSWER is: anchors cardiac muscle fibres.

EXPLANATION:
The fibrous skeleton anchors cardiac muscle fibers. Cardiac muscle tissue pump blood into the vessels of the circulatory system.


28) These vessels empty blood into the left atrium.
ANSWER IS: pulmonary veins


29)Action potentials pass from one myocardial cell to another through areas of low electrical resistance called

ANSWER IS: gap junctions

30) The "pacemaker" of the heart is the

ANSWER IS: SA node

EXPLANATION:

The sinus node( SA node ) consists of a cluster of cells, situated in the upper part of the wall of the right atrium. The electrical impulses begins in SA node and cause heart to beat (contract).
