AV
force blood against
closed AV valves
“Dub”
force of blood against
semilunar valves
Heart murmur
_________________________________________
blood squirts backward through valve
Regents Biology
Electrical signals
allows atria to empty
completely before
ventricles contract
stimulates ventricles
to contract from
bottom to top, driving
blood into arteries
heart pumping controlled by electrical impulses
Biology

signal
also transmitted to skin = ________
atria empty
into ventricles
Cardiac Cycle
How is this
reflected in
blood pressure
measurements?
chambers begin
to fill
pump (peak pressure)
__________________
fill (minimum pressure)
110
______
80

ventricles
pump
Measurement of blood pressure
hypertension =
(high
blood pressure)
Regents Biology
if top number > 150
or
if bottom number > 90
