Study Notes
Heart Anatomy
- Chordae tendineae are the thin tissues that hold the heart valves in place during ventricular contractions.
- The heart valves prevent blood from flowing backward into the atria.
Heart Chambers
- The two lower chambers of the heart are called ventricles.
- The two upper chambers of the heart are called atria.
- After leaving the ventricles, blood flows into the pulmonary artery and the aorta.
Psychology
- The subject matter of psychology is the study of behavior and mental processes.
- Biological psychologists link psychology to neuroscience by studying the neural mechanisms that underlie behavior and mental processes.
- Cognitive scientists primarily focus on mental processes, including perception, attention, memory, language, and problem-solving.
- Psychologists are involved in various types of research, including experimental, correlational, and observational studies.
- The primary focus of social scientists in psychology is on the role of social factors, such as culture, family, and environment, in shaping behavior and mental processes.
