Summary Introduction

To determine:

The effect of hole in heart as if the heart of a normally developed human fetus has a hole between left and right atria and in some cases the whole does not completely before birth. If it is not surgically corrected, how would it affect the O2 content of the blood entering into the systemic circuit.

Introduction:

Heart is a muscular organ present in the left side of the breastbone. It pumps blood through the network of arteries and veins know as cardiovascular system. Human has four chambered heart in which two atria and two ventricles are present and are separated by a valve. Blood flow in human body is facilitated by double circulation.

HQ5. Correctly sequence the pathway of blood flow through the heart, beginning with the venae cavae, by placing the numbers on the appropriate structures of the heart.
Scenario 2-One very unhealthy-looking human goes into atrial fibrillation while working out in the Vegan gym. This is when the SA node is not generating coordinated electrical impulses. Instead, impulses are flowing randomly over the atrial walls eventually making their way to the AV node. The AV node then generates normal electrical impulses. The result of this appears to be normal ventricular contraction, but the atria just wiggle around, and atrial contraction is not well coordinated. Predicted effect on systolic and dastolic blood Predicted effect on the EKG trace. Present both a drawing of the trace and explain how/why it is different from the normal trace. pressure:
HQ6. Put the labels to the location of the structure being described.
