Where on the body would you direct firm effleurage strokes toward the heart and why?
Effleurage strokes that are centripetal (towards the heart) are most often performed on the extremities, like the arms and legs, because it is important to direct the blood flow towards the heart in the veins to prevent damage to their valves.
Why does the heart fail when the body is starving?
because there isn't enough fuel to keep it pumping, your body needs energy to do everything it does. if you stopped eating you would be missing out on vital carbohydrates, causing a loss of energy. by the time your heart fails from starvation you would probably not be able to walk more than a few steps.
Are the chambers in the heart connected?
yes they are, only separated by small valves,which are there to prevent the backwards flow of blood

What are the slower heart chambers in the heart?
The heart has two top chambers called atria that receive blood from the body on the right side and from the lungs on the left side, and two bottom, muscular chambers that pump blood to the lungs and body respectively.
There is a rate control center in the right atrium that tells the atria to beat first and then, after a small delay, the ventricles to beat. So all the chambers beat at the same rate under normal conditions.
If there is a problem with the conduction (i.e. the communication system) between the atria and ventricles, the ventricles may not get all the messages to beat and will be slower...
In some patients the ventricles may decide to start beating faster than the atria but this is very abnormal...
What are the different chambers of the heart?
Your heart has four chambers. The upper chambers are called the left and right atria, and the lower chambers are called the left and right ventricles. A wall of muscle called the septum separates the left and right atria and the left and right ventricles. The left ventricle is the largest and strongest chamber in your heart. The left ventricle's chamber walls are only about a half-inch thick, but they have enough force to push blood through the aortic valve and into your body.

Would an increase in tubular reabsorption decrease urine output?
This question is asking about a general phenomenon seen in the kidney: tubular reabsorption. The kidney tubules reabsorb lots of things, so you'd have to be specific in order to get a correct response.
If you're asking whether, say, increasing tubular reabsorption of sodium would decrease urine output, the answer is yes assuming normal physiology.
