  2. Where in the heart is the sinoatrial node located? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/where-in-the-heart-is-the-sinoa...

    The sinoatrial node is located in the superior wall of the right atrium . The heart has its own intrinsic regulating system called the conduction system, that generates and distributes electrical impulses over the heart to stimulate cardiac muscle fibers or cells to contract. This rhythmic contraction distributes blood to tissues. The conductive system begins at the sinoatrial node (SA node ...

  3. Where are the pacemaker cells located in the heart? | Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/where-are-the-pacemaker-cells...

    The pacemaker cells of the heart with location are: Sinoatrial node (SA node): Wall of the right atrium near the opening of the superior vena cava. Atrioventricular node (AV node): Between the left atrium and the right ventricle within the atrial septum. Bundle of His: Along the interventricular septum. Purkinje fibers: In the inner ventricular ...

  4. Are the kidneys located posterior, anterior, inferior or ... -...

    socratic.org/questions/are-the-kidneys-located-posterior...

    Answer link. The kidneys are inferior (below), posterior (back) and lateral to the heart. The heart sits in the mediastinum (central compartment of the thoracic cavity) while the kidneys are further down on the retroperitoneum (the space in the abdominal cavity behind the peritoneum/ membrane). They are below the heart - inferior.

  5. Is you heart behind either of the lungs? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/is-you-heart-behind-either-of-the-lungs

    Explanation: Your heart is located between your lungs in the center of your chest, but slightly to the left of the breastbone (sternum). It is not directly behind them, but rather between them in a position where some parts of the heart are covered - or rather surrounded by - the lungs. By that, I mean that there is a cardiac notch in the left ...

  6. Which chamber of the heart receives deoxygenated blood from ... -...

    socratic.org/questions/which-chamber-of-the-heart-receives...

    Right Atrium Our heart has four chambers, two atria (right and left) and two ventricles (right and left). The right atrium receives the de-oxygenated blood from the body. From the right atrium blood passes to the right ventricle. The right ventricle propels this de-oxygenated blood to the lungs though pulmonary artery, for oxygenation. The deoxygenated blood loses carbon-di-oxide and gains ...

  7. Organization of the Human Body - Anatomy & Physiology - Socratic

    socratic.org/anatomy-physiology/the-human-body-11/...

    The overall reaction in the body is described by the equation C6H12O6 (aq) + 6O2 (g) = 6CO2 (g) + 6H2O (l). How many grams of oxygen are required to convert 28.0 g of glucose to CO2 and H2O? What are the 5 levels of the human body? Why is it important to use a system of location similar to north/south and east/west to describe location on a ...

  8. Rose Curves - Precalculus - Socratic

    socratic.org/precalculus/polar-coordinates/rose-curves

    Answer: The polar equation of a rose curve is either r = acosnθ or r = asinnθ. The number of rose petals will be n or 2n according as n is an odd or an even integer. See explanation. Explanation: Having seen that there were more than 1 K viewers in a day, I now add more. The 2-D polar coordinates P (r,θ), r = √x2 + y2 ≥ 0.

    socratic.org/questions/two-cards-are-drawn-without...

    The probability of drawing two consecutive Jacks without replacement is 1 out of 221 or 1/221 The probability of drawing the initial Jack is 4 out of 52 as there are 4 Jacks in deck of 52 cards. Since you are not replacing the Jack the Deck now has 51 cards and 3 Jacks making that 3 out of 51. 1st Jack = 4/52 2nd Jack = 3/51 To find the probability of consecutive events we would multiply the ...

  10. Hydrogenation - Organic Chemistry - Socratic

    socratic.org/organic-chemistry-1/alkene-and-alkyne...

    Hydrogenation requires a catalyst to make the reaction go at a reasonable rate. The reaction will go without a catalyst , but it needs extremely high temperatures. Consider the reaction: CH₂=CH₂ + H-H → CH₃-CH₃. We must break the π bond and the H-H σ bond to form the two new C-H bonds. The π bond is relatively weak, but the H-H ...

  11. When do you use patients, patient's, or patients'? - Socratic

    socratic.org/questions/when-do-you-use-patients-patient-s...

    After that 5-car accident, the patients' families were here immediately. More than one patient = patients One patient has something = patient's Many patients have something = patients' Examples: I have several patients to see today. This pateint's chart is incorrect. After that 5-car accident, the patients' families were here immediately.
