Presentation on theme: "What do I remember? What is the structure of the heart?"— Presentation transcript:

1 What do I remember? What is the structure of the heart?
What is the path of blood through the heart? What is the definition of cardiac output? How is cardiac output calculated?

2 Unit 2 Physiology and Health 2. Cardiac cycle
Higher Human Biology Unit 2 Physiology and Health 2. Cardiac cycle

3 Activity Watch Dr Alice The Heart

4 What do I need to know? What is the cardiac cycle?
What is the difference between systole and diastole? What effect does a change in pressure have on the Atrioventricular valve? What effect does a change in pressure have on the semi lunar valve?

5 What is the cardiac cycle?
The pattern of contraction and relaxation shown by the heart in one complete heartbeat Beating heart with blood flow

6 What is the difference between systole and diastole?
Heart muscle is contracting – Squeezing blood out of the chambers Diastole Heart muscle is relaxing allowing blood to flow back into the chambers

7 Cardiac cycle in motion

8 Effect of pressure on AV valve
During atrial diastole atria fill with blood Pressure in atria exceeds that in ventricles AV valve opens Blood flows into ventricle Atrial systole follows squeezing remaining blood into ventricles Pressure builds up in ventricles causing AV valves to close Backflow of blood from ventricle to atrium prevented

9 Effect of pressure on Semi lunar valves
Pressure increases in the ventricles Ventricular systole cause semilunar valves to open Blood rushes into pulmonary artery and aorta Blood pressure in arteries increases Semilunar valves close Back flow of blood from artery to ventricle prevented

10 Lubb dupp Lubb dub are the heart sounds Lubb – when AV valves close
Dupp – when semilunar valves close

11 What do I know? What is the cardiac cycle?
What is the difference between systole and diastole? What effect does a change in pressure have on the Atrioventricular valve? What effect does a change in pressure have on the semi lunar valve?
