The period of the cardiac cycle where the greatest amount of ventricular filling occurs is:
1. the first one-third of diastole.
2. the middle one-third of diastole.
3. the last one-third of diastole.

The semilunar valves will open during a normal cardiac cycle when the pressure in the left ventricle is
1. greater than the pressure in the aorta.
2. less than the pressure in the aorta.
3. the same as the pressure in the aorat.
4. less than the pressure in the left atrium.

Stroke volume is the
1. amount of blood pumped by the left ventricle per minute.
2. difference between end-diastolic and end-systolic volume.
3. difference between systolic and diastolic blood pressure.
4. amount of blood pumped by atrial systole into the ventricles.

What is most likely to happen if the SA node suddenly stops generating the impulse?
1. The heart will stop.
2. The ventricles will contract, but the atria will stop.
3. Another part of the heart, possibly the AV node, will become the pacemaker.
4. The atria will keep contracting, but the ventricles will stop.

Identify the correct statement regarding the cardiac muscle:
1. Cardiac muscle does not have sarcoplasmic reticulum.
2. Cardiac muscle has a plateau phase in repolarization called the plateau phase.
3. Cardiac muscle has a shorter refractory period than skeletal muscle.
4. Depolarization of cardiac muscle occurs when K+ and Na+ diffuse into the cell.

A slower heart rate or bradycardia would most likely be the result of:

2. damage to the tricuspid valve
3. excessive sympathetic stimulation
4. excessive parasympathetic stimulation
