This document contains 9 review questions about the heart and circulatory system. The questions cover tracing blood flow through the circulatory system, describing the location and function of the heart valves, why the SA node is the heart's pacemaker, correlating the mechanical and electrical events of the cardiac cycle, how the heart receives its own blood supply, how blocking the left bundle branch would affect heart sounds, identifying a faulty valve based on a described heart murmur, why someone lost consciousness due to cardiac arrhythmias, and describing the three steps of hemostasis and intrinsic/extrinsic clotting pathways.

1. Trace a drop of blood through one complete circuit of the circulatory
system. 2. Describe the location and function of the four heart valves. What keeps each of these valves from everting? 3. Why is the SA node the pacemaker of the heart? 4. Describe the mechanical events (that is, pressure changes, volume changes, valve activity and heart sounds) of the cardiac cycle. Correlate the mechanical events of the cardiac cycle with the changes in electrical activity. 5. How is the heart muscle provided with blood? Why does the heart receive most of its own blood supply during diastole? 6. If the left bundle branch of the conducting system is blocked, how would the heart sounds be affected? 7. Harvey has a heart murmur in his left ventricle that produces a loud gurgling sound at the beginning of systole. Which valve is probably faulty? 8. Vern is suffering from cardiac arrhythmias and is brought into the emergency room of a hospital. In the emergency room he begins to exhibit tachycardia and as a result loses consciousness. Explain why Vern lost consciousness. 9. Describe the three steps of hemostasis, including a comparison of the
intrinsic and extrinsic pathways by which the clotting cascade is
