  • Which chamber of the heart form the apex


    Left ventricle

  • Superficial or outer layer that protect and anchor the heart to surrounding structures. Compose by dense connective tissue.


    Fibrous pericardium

  • Double walled sac that surrounds the heart


    Pericardium

  • Reduces friction between the heart and surrounding structure


    Serous pericardium

  • Layers of the pericardium


    Parietal layer- Internal surface

    Visceral layer -external surface of the heart

  • Layer of the heart made up of cardiac tissue and act as contractile muscle cell


    Myocardium

  • Layer of the heart that contains endothelium cell , and is simple squamous epithelium


    Endocardium

  • Muscular irregular ridges on the walls of the ventricles


    Trabecula carnae

  • Help prevent the AV valves prolapse during ventricular contraction


    Papillary muscle

  • Allows ion to pass directly from cell to cell


    Gap junction

  • Anchor neighboring cells together


    Desmosomes

  • Vessels that supply the myocardium


    Left and Right Coronary Artery.

  • In pacemaker cell what ion is involve in the depolarization state.


    Calcium

  • What happen when calcium channels remain open during the depolarization of the contractile cardiac muscle


    Plateau phase , prevent tetanic contraction

  • During depolarization phase the cells inside becomes more


    positive

  • What blood vessels supply the myocardium


    RT and LT coronary arteries
