COMPLETE QUESTIONS SOLUTIONS
GRADED A+
◉ the aortic and pulmonic valves are called.
Answer: semilunar valves
◉ In most adults, the diastolic sounds of ____ and ___ are pathologic,
and are correlated with systolic and diastolic heart failure respectively..
Answer: S3 and S4
◉ As the heart valves close, the heart sounds of __ and ___ arise from
vibrations emanating from the leaflets, the adjacent cardiac structures,
and the flow of blood.
Answer: S1 and S2
◉ an ___ corresponds to an abrupt deceleration of inflow across the
mitral valve.
Answer: S3
◉ an ___ corresponds to increased left ventricular end diastolic stiffness
which decreases compliance.
Answer: S4
, ◉ the period of ventricular contraction.
Answer: systole
◉ what happens in systole (short definition).
Answer: the left ventricle ejects blood into the aorta
◉ the period of ventricular relaxation is.
Answer: diastole
◉ what happens in diastole.
Answer: - after the ventricle ejects much of its blood into aorta, the
pressure levels off and starts to fall
- ventricular pressure falls further, and blood starts to flow from atrium
to ventricle ( blood filling)
◉ in systole, the ___ is open allowing ejection of blood from the LV to
the aorta and the _______ is closed.
Answer: aortic valve is open, mitral valve is closed
◉ why is the mitral valve closed during systole?.
Answer: it is preventing blood from regurgitating back into the left
atrium
◉ during diastole, ____ is closed.
