Muscles around the arterioles dictates where blood flows in the body…why is this useful? B. All hearts have at least one thinner walled chamber where blood collects called the ____________ and at least one thicker-muscled chamber that squeezes blood out of the heart: v________________. C. The blood that flows from the heart into the gills or lungs is in the _______________ circuit; the blood that flows from the heart to the rest of the body is in the ________________ circuit.arrow_forwardThe inferior vena cava brings blood from the lower regions of the body and empties into the __________.

- All of the following are correct about the isovolumetric contraction, except ____________. A. This phase of the cardiac cycle begins with the appearance of the QRS complex of the ECG, which represents atrial repolarization and ventricular depolarization B. It represents the time period between the closure of the AV valves and the opening of the aortic and pulmonic valves, ventricular pressure rises rapidly without a change in ventricular volume C. The rate of pressure increase in the ventricles is determined by the rate of contraction of the muscle fibers, which is determine by mechanisms governing excitation-contraction coupling D.
