- 19Identify this white blood cell.monocyte

- 20Function of monocyte :aggressive phagocytosis
- 21Identify these structures.platelets

- 22Function of platelets :release clotting chemicals
- 23Identify this structure as a whole.artery

- 24Function of arteries :carry blood away from the heart
- 25Identify the structure on the left of this slide.vein

- 26Function of veins :carry blood towards the heart
- 27Identify the black structure.tunica intima

- 28Function of the tunica intima :reduces friction for blood flow
- 29Identify the black structure.tunica media

- 30Function of tunica media :vasoconstriction & vasodilation
- 31Identify the black structure.tunica externa

- 32Function of tunica externa :anchors the blood vessel
- 33Identify the structure in the middle of the artery.venous valve

- 34Function of venous valve :prevents backflow of blood
- 35What are the 3 layers of the heart wall?endocardium, myocardium, epicardium
- 36Identify the black structure.endocardium

- 37Function of endocardium :reduces friction
- 38Identify the black structure.myocardium

- 39Function of myocardium :contracts to pump blood
- 40Identify the black structure.epicardium

- 41What are the 4 chambers of the heart?right atrium, left atrium, right ventricle, left ventricle
- 42Identify this structure.right atrium

- 43Identify #2.right atrium

- 44Function of the right atrium :receives oxygen-poor blood
- 45Identify #6left atrium

- 46Identify the black structure.left atrium

- 47Function of the left atrium :receives oxygen-rich blood
- 48Identify Fright ventricle

- 49Function of right ventricle :ejects blood through pulmonary valve and artery to the lungs
- 50Identify ileft ventricle

- 51Function of the left ventricle :pumps blood to the entire systemic circuit
- 52What are the 4 main heart valves?right AV valve, left AV valve, pulmonary valve, aortic valve
- 53General function of heart valves :prevent the backflow of blood
- 54Identify this structure.right AV valve

- 55Identify #12left AV valve

- 65Identify these structures.pulmonary arteries

- 66Identify this structure.aorta

- 67Identify the blue structure under the aorta.pulmonary veins

- 68Identify this structure.chordae tendineae

- 69Function of chordae tendineae :prevent eversion of AV valves
- 70Identify this structure.papillary muscles

- 71Function of papillary muscles :prevent eversion of AV valves
- 72Identify this structure.interventricular septum

- 73Identify this structure.fossa ovalis

- 74The fossa ovalis is inside the :right atrium
- 75Identify #8pectinate muscles

- 76Identify this structure.trabeculae carneae

- 77Identify this structure.anterior longitudinal sulcus

- 78Identify this structure.posterior longitudinal sulcus

- 79Identify these structures.internal openings of the coronary arteries

- 80Identify this structure.moderator band

- 81Function of the moderator band :conducts electrical impulses
