    In cardiac muscle, the depolarization phase of the action potential is the result of:

  2. 2

    The pectinate muscles are:

  3. 3

    If the conduction between the SA node and AV node becomes blocked:

  4. 4

    In which of the following situations would the end-systolic volume be greatest?

  5. 5

    The heart is innervated by what nerves?

  6. 6

    During ventricular systole, the:

  7. 7

    Each of the following would increase heart rate except:

  8. 8

    The first heart sound is heard when the:

  9. 9

    The blood vessels that play the most important role in regulation of blood flow to tissue and susceptible to the effects of blood pressure are the:

  10. 10

    Compared to the right ventricle, the left ventricle has all the following characteristics except:

  11. 11

    Compared to arteries, veins:

  12. 12

    The volume of blood ejected from each ventricle during a contraction is called the:

  13. 13

    The cusps of the AV valves are attached to the papillary muscles by the:

  14. 14

    In cardiac muscle, the plateau phase of the cardiac muscle action potential is due to:

  15. 15

    Blood moves forward through veins by all of the following except:

  16. 16

    When a clot forms on the plaque in a coronary vessel and obstructs blood flow to the muscle, the clot formation and blockage is referred to as:

  17. 17

    If one suffers from damaged or regurgitating mitral valve insufficiency, this condition would cause:

  18. 18

    The visceral or inner layer of the pericardium makes up the:

  19. 19

    Blood flow through the circulatory system is affected by all of the following except:

  20. 20

    The atrioventricular valve on the side of the heart that receives venous blood from the systemic circulation is the

  21. 21

    The cardiac output is equal to:

  22. 22

    The secretion of ADH and aldosterone to retain fluid are typical of the body's long-term compensation following:

  23. 23

    In which case would the stroke volume be the greatest?

  24. 24

    Abnormally slow conduction through the ventricles would change the shape of the:
