Heart

Yes, the buildup of plaque in the blood vessels is called atherosclerosis.

Yes. It is the electrical activity that stimulates the mechanical activity.

The blood flows from the veins into the vena cava (inferior and superior) then into the right atrium. The right side of the heart sends the blood to the lungs to exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen.

The average beats per minute is 60-80 resting. This varies depending on your age, gender, and how fit you are.

Hearts of Iron happened in 2002.

true. Heart sounds or lubb dubb are created when the valves of the heart snap shut

If the SA node fails to fire the atrioventricular node should take over.

Psychosomatic medicine is a multidisciplinary branch of medicine dedicated to the study and clinical practice of medicine in relation with all processes that cause a pathological interaction between mind and body or between mental and physical processes.

Psychoneuroimmunology or PNI, is the most related discipline to Psychosomatic medicine, but not the only one; geriatrics, pediatrics, surgery, gynecology, endocrinology. cardiology, psychiatry, internal medicine, gastroenterology, cosmetic surgery, emergency medicine and many other branches may at one time or other treat disorders with psychosomatic causes or complications.

Psychosomatic is a word that is sometimes erroneously used in a pejorative way for saying 'it is all in your mind', what adds suffering to those who already are suffering from a psychosomatic disorder. The correct use of the term, is instead a key to solve some puzzling mix of symptoms that could not be attributed to a particular illness or that can be attributed to many disorders.

If the body suffers because a problem generated in the mind or if the mind and emotional well being suffer because a problem of the body, then that is a psychosomatic disorder.

Like any major surgery, there is pain after a heart transplant. As with any post-op patient, pain relieving drugs are given during the first few days post-op.

Deoxygenated blood enters the heart in the right atrium then passes through the TRICUSPID valve to the right ventricle. Then blood leaves the right ventricle through the PULMONARY valve to pick up oxygen and lose CO2 in the lungs. Oxygenated blood leaves the lungs then enters the left atrium. Blood then travels through the MITRAL valve to the left ventricle. Finally the left ventricle expels the oxygenated blood through the AORTIC valve and then out to the body.

it probably might not withstand the pressure tht heart mucle has to go thru in keeping us alive

The EKG or ECG components are the P wave (contraction of the atria), the QRS complex (the contraction of the ventricles) and the T wave (repolarization of the ventricles).

The valves keep blood flowing in one direction. And there are even valves in the veins. The system is called a circulatory system and the system must keep going in a circle to function properly.

Mono-diglycerides is another name for hydrogenated oils. The mono means they are a combination of various oils mixed, hydrogenated, then diglycerides are then separated out.

Your brain can power up a 40 Watts lamp (for as long as it lives). I really don't have the proof of this, but it's something a professor of mine told in the class of Pattern Recognition the other day (because we were talking about neural networks).
