Understanding the Cardiovascular System: Pre-Lab Exploration and Diagram Analysis
This pre-lab guide provides comprehensive insights into the cardiovascular system, enhancing your understanding of heart functions, blood flow, and pressure dynamics. Utilize detailed diagrams to illustrate the anatomy of the heart, including both the arteries and veins, pulmonary and systemic pathways. Key concepts include the phases of the cardiac cycle, the role of valves, and the significance of systolic and diastolic pressures. Follow the directions available on Moodle for effective preparation, ensuring good visual representation for your diagrams.

Changes in Blood Pressure During the Cardiac Cycle • Systolic pressure is the pressure in the arteries during ventricular systole; it is the highest pressure in the arteries • Diastolic pressure is the pressure in the arteries during diastole; it is lower than systolic pressure • A pulse is the rhythmic bulging of artery walls with each heartbeat
