Summary Introduction

To determine:

The advantages and disadvantages of having additional heart in human body.

Introduction:

Heart is muscular organ help in circulation of blood into whole body. It also helps in transportation of oxygen and nutrients to the body through blood and removes carbon dioxide and metabolic waste. It is located between the lungs. Deoxygenated blood is pumped into lungs where the blood gets oxygenated and this oxygenated blood comes into 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:
1 point Which of the following best describes diastole? The atria contract which force the atrioventricular valves to close The ventricles contract forcing blood to leave the heart and the atrioventricular valves close The ventricles relax and re-fill with blood and the atrioventricular valves open Both atria and ventricles contract at the same time and all valves are open What is NOT the function of hemoglobin in red blood cells? O Delivers CO2 from the body cells Binds and delivers 02 to body cells Involved in blood clotting Involved in fighting off bacteria and viruses The system of blood vessels that carry blood between the lungs and the heart is called the: Systemic circuit Circulatory circuit Pulmonary circuit vascular circuit Why does blood turn dark red as it circulates through the body? It starts to clot. It gets old and dirty flowing through the body. The oxygen in the blood is replaced with carbon dioxide. The farther blood is from the heart, the darker red it is. ΟΟ 1 point…
WHAT IF? If your doctor gave you a copy of your ECG recording, how could you determine what your heartrate had been during the test?
