2 sides of the heart work together
Diastole
-Heart muscles are relaxed
-Blood flows into the atria from the veins

Systole (atria or ventricles)
Heart muscles contract
1. Atria contract (DA...)
- blood forces into the ventricles 

2. Ventricles contract (DUM...)
- blood forced into the arteries 

Slide 9 - Slide

heart attack
  • One or more bloodvessels around the heart muscle (coronary arteries) is blocked
  • Parts of the heart stop beating or start beating irregularly
  • Blockage = called thrombosis

Slide 10 - Slide

Stroke
  • One or more bloodvessels to the brain are blocked.
  • Parts of the brain get starved of oxygen and can be damaged permanently.

-eating fatty foods
-being over weight
-smoking
-taking little or no exercise

Slide 12 - Slide

Da:
  • The left and right atria contract
  • The left and right ventricles relax
  • The tricuspid and mitral valves open
  • The blood flows into the left and right ventricles
  • The pulmonary and aortic valves close (the sound DA)
