KIN 2YY3 Test – 1 with 108 complete
solutions.
Name all the functions of the cardiovascular system - ANSWER Transport gases, nutrients, hormones
around the human body; Immunity, tissue repair, regulating body temperature
What are the components of the CV system - ANSWER Heart, blood vessels, blood
What is the right side of the heart responsible for? - ANSWER pulmonary circulation
What is the left side of the heart responsible for? - ANSWER systemic circulation
What component of the CV system has a lot vascalature - ANSWER The lungs
What are the functions of the heart - ANSWER Generating blood pressure (driving force), routing blood
to seperate circulation, one-way blood flow, regulating blood supply during activity
Where is the Heart located - ANSWER Mediastinum
What is in the mediastinum? - ANSWER area between the lungs; contains bronchiole tubules,
Parietal Pleural - ANSWER lines rib cage outside of lungs
vsiceral pleural - ANSWER closely adheres to the lung
Where are t/he ventricles and atrias located respectively - ANSWER (Ventricle = more anterior and more
inferior) Atria = more posterior
, KIN 2YY3 Test – 1 with 108 complete
solutions.
What are the Great veins - ANSWER Superior Vena Cava, Pulmonary trunk, pulmonary veins and
pulmonary arteries
Name all the Layers of the pericardium from deep to superficial - ANSWER Serous pericardium (Visceral
Pericardium, pericardial cavity, parietal pericardium), Fibrous pericardium
How is the heart oriented - ANSWER obliquely, 2/3 on the left, apex and bas
What does the fibrous pericardium do? - ANSWER protects the heart, anchors it to surrounding
structures, and prevents overfilling of the heart with blood, prevents distention, acts as a wall for the
serous pleural and pericardial
Serous pericardium - ANSWER parietal pericardium & visceral pericardium; simple squamous layer
What are the Layers of the Heart? - ANSWER epicardium, myocardium, endocardium
Epicardium - ANSWER also referred to as teh visceral pericardium (simple squamous epithelium),
connects to the loose connective tissue and adipose tissue
Myocardium - ANSWER muscular, middle layer of the heart, thickest layer
Endocardium - ANSWER Thin simple squamous layer of the heart with trabeculae carneae; chamber
lining & valves
What are the Four chambers of the heart? - ANSWER 2 upper atria + 2 lower ventricles
Auricles & trabeculae cearnae - ANSWER reduce suction, provide more surface area; more friction
Coronary Sulcus - ANSWER Encircles heart and marks the boundary between the heart atria & ventricles
goes around the entire heart
