The ______ side of the heart replaces CO2 with O2 and the _______ side disperses it.

The right side of the heart replaces CO2 with O2 and the left side disperses it.

The bottom part of the heart, that's sort of shaped like a heart consists of the left and right _____________.

Ventricles

Define blood pressure, please.The result of blood being pumped out of the ventricles, exerting force against the arterial walls.

Average blood pressure is supposed to be 120/80. Which is the systolic, and which is the diastolic number?

systolic = 120diastolic = 80

When the heart contracts, this represents the peak amount of pressure on the arteries. Which type of blood pressure is this?

Systolic

Diastolic blood pressure is when the heart expands. Is this putting more or less pressure on the arteries?

Less

Give me a "high" reading for blood pressure. 140/80

What's an average resting heart rate? 72 BPM

I'm 36. What's my Max HR rate? Max HR = 220-36 = 184

What's the Max HR formula? Max HR = 220 - age

Define stroke volume.The amount of blood that the left ventricle ejects in one beat.

Stroke volume is the amount of blood ejected by a ventricle in one beat. Is it the left or the right ventricle?

The left.

Cardiac output is the amount of blood ejected by the heart in one minute.

What's the formula for this?

Q (ml/min) = SV(ml) x HR(bpm)

The typical male has a stroke volume (SV) of 70 ml/beat.

When he's around me his HR increases to 80 BPM.

Please calculate Q (Cardiac Output).

5600 ml/min

What are four essential functions of the skeleton?

1. Protect vital organs and soft tissue2. Factory where red blood cells are produced3. Serve as reservoir for minerals4. Provides attachment for muscles to produce movement

What is the Axial Skeleton?The word "Axial" is taken from the word "axis" and refers to the fact that the bones are located close to or along the central axis of the body.

How many bones does the axial skeleton have? The axial skeleton has 80 bones.

Name 4 bones of the axial skeleton.

• Skull• Spine• Ribs• Sternum

What is the Appendular Skeleton?

The word appendicular is the adjective of the noun appendage, which itself means a part that is joined to something larger.

Functionally it is involved in locomotion (Lower limbs) of the axial skeleton and manipulation of objects in the environment (Upper limbs).

How many bones does the appendular skeleton have? The appendular skeleton has 126 bones.

Name the three major bone groups of the appendular skeleton.

• Shoulders (limb girdle)• Pelvis (limb girdle)• Bones in limbs

Name the four classifications of bones.

Long BonesShort BonesFlat BonesIrregular Bones

What are long bones?Long bones serve as levers for movement.

i.e. humerus, femur

What are short bones?

Short bones give strength to joint, but allow for limited mobility.

During the movie "The Karate Kid", the master teaches the kid to "wax on" and "wax off".

Wax on = __________ rotationWax off = __________ rotation

Wax on = medial rotation (towards midline)Wax off = lateral rotation (away from midline)

Of course, you may wax on and off in the opposite way, or like me have never waxed a car and really don't give a shit.

Raise your right hand and wax on and off. Each time you bring the hand towards your body say "wax medial", and each time you move your hand away say "wax lateral".

Do this ten times each way. Now you know it.
