Which group of pacemaker cells is responsible for setting the heart rate in a healthy patient? Write a flow diagram (eg: structure A --> structure B --> structure C, etc.) to describe the path that an action potential would take as it makes its way through the electrical conduction system of the heart, being sure to name all structures. What structure enables action potentials to directly spread between neighbouring cardiomyocytes? Be specific.

Define circulatory shock. Explain what hypovolemic shock is and list the ways a person may suffer from hypovolemic shock. Describe the mechanisms the body initiates in an attempt to compensate for shock, and how these mechanisms have the potential to maintain blood flow homeostasis.

Describe in detail the baroreceptor reflex. Be sure to name and describe all the contributing components, their locations, their specific roles in the reflex. Then give an example of a situation in which blood pressure would suddenly fall and explain how the baroreceptor reflex operates to maintain blood pressure homeostasis. Then give an example of a situation in which blood pressure would suddenly rise and explain how the baroreceptor reflex operates to maintain blood pressure homeostasis. (it’s easiest to choose simple examples like body position changes lying to standing, standing to lying down).
