Systole = Contraction of ventricle that generates enough force to pump blood out of the heart
Diastole = Filling phase of a heart beat
Period of time when the atria are filling with blood= Atrial diastole and other is ventricular diastole |

|
Term
|
Definition
Delays cardiac impulses from the sinoatrial node to allow the atria to contract and empty their contents first.
Basically, allows there to be time for blood to go from atria to ventricles so that it isn't just one squeeze |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Carries cardiac impulses down the septum to the ventricles via the Purkinje fibers.
Just a pathway for signals from AV nodes |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Relays cardiac impulses to the ventricular cells causing the ventricles to contract.
Tells ventricles to contract now that it is ensured that all of the blood from the atria are in the ventricles |
