Document Summary
Basic structure (arteries go awayarteries dont always carry oxygenated blood: pulmonary artery carry deoxygenated blood to lungs. Other arteries carry oxygenated since they are going away and need to go to other body parts: pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood. What side (left/right) contains oxygenated vs deoxygenated: right side contains deoxygenated) Pericardium: mediastinum (between lungs: pericardial layers (2 parietal layers, space pericardial cavity, visceral serous layer) Fibrous pericardium, parietal serous, space, visceral serous layer. Heart structure/blood flow: know it perfectly, know the valves (where they are located and function) Excitability (not a lot but still: understand what happens, sinoatrial node gives signal, atria contract, then av node picks up signal and then takes it down to the ventricles and then papillary muscle. Arterioles similar to artery and venules similar to veins. Compare and contrast the venous and the arteries. Veins (questions related to which artery or veins are connected to each other)
