What is the function of chordae tendineae?Multiple ChoiceGenerate force to push blood through the heartOpen the AV valves during atrial contractionCarry electrical signals through the ventricular myocardiumPrevent the cusps of the AV valves from moving up into the atria

What is the function of the chordae tendineae and the papillary muscles?Multiple choice question.to pump blood from the ventricles into the arteries leaving the heartto increase surface area for the absorption of oxygen and nutrients from the blood into the heart wallto open the AV valves when the pressure of the blood in the atria is great enoughto prevent the AV valves from inverting into the atria due to the pressure of blood

What are the chordae tendineae?Multiple choice question.bunches of muscles within the myocardiumtough fibrous cords that anchor the AV valves to the papillary musclesthe ear-like external appendages of the atriamodified muscles cells that conduct impulse during contraction

What prevents the atrioventricular valves from inverting into the atrium against the pressure of blood from the ventricles?Multiple choice question.chordae tendineae and papillary musclesthe shape of the valvesblood pressure in the atria

What is the function of chordae tendinae?  What is a likely outcome from dysfunctiuon of chordae tendinae?

Papillary musclesMultiple Choiceare attached to the semilunar valves via the chordae tendineae.prevent the backflow of blood into the atria during ventricular systole.prevent the backflow of blood into the ventricles from the aorta.prevent the valves from closing during ventricular diastole.contract when the ventricles relax.
