Dorsokaudale Ansicht des Herzens

This video tutorial provides an in-depth exploration of heart anatomy, focusing on the dorso-caudal view. It covers the heart's position, structure, and function, including the mediastinum and pericardium. The tutorial details the aortic arch, major vessels, pulmonary circulation, and the roles of the vena cava and atria. It also explains the ventricles, coronary circulation, and the sulcus interventricularis posterior, offering a comprehensive understanding of the heart's anatomy and physiology.

What is the primary function of the heart in the circulatory system?

• To store oxygen

• To filter blood

• To produce blood cells

• To pump blood throughout the body

Where is the heart located in the human body?

• In the abdominal cavity

• In the mediastinum

• In the cranial cavity

• In the pelvic cavity

Which structure is formed by the left ventricle and is located at the heart's tip?

• Vena Cava

• Pulmonary Trunk

• Aortic Arch

• Apex Cordis

What is the function of the aortic arch?

• To transport oxygen-poor blood to the lungs

• To store blood temporarily

• To supply blood to the heart muscle

• To carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the body

What is unique about the pulmonary arteries compared to other arteries?

• They are located in the abdomen

• They carry oxygen-rich blood

• They carry oxygen-poor blood

• They are the largest arteries in the body

Which veins carry oxygen-rich blood to the heart?

• Inferior vena cava

• Pulmonary veins

• Coronary veins

• Superior vena cava

What is the role of the superior vena cava?

• To supply blood to the lungs

• To transport oxygen-poor blood to the right atrium

• To carry oxygen-rich blood to the left atrium

• To store blood temporarily

Which valve prevents backflow of blood from the right ventricle to the right atrium?

• Mitral valve

• Aortic valve

• Tricuspid valve

• Pulmonary valve

What is the main function of the left ventricle?

• To pump blood to the lungs

• To pump blood into the body's circulation

• To receive blood from the body

• To store blood

Which structure marks the boundary between the right atrium and the right auricle?

• Pectinate muscles

• Crista terminalis

• Tricuspid valve

• Mitral valve
