The layers of the pericardium not including the epicardium include great vessels, while the epicardium layer just encloses the heart, making it considered one of the walls of the heart.

Re: Anatomy and Physiology B/C
Coronary circulation branches off from the aorta (part of the great vessels), so it is usually not considered a partWangwithaTang wrote:Here wrote:Pulmonary artery and vein, superior and inferior vena cava, aorta, and suchWangwithaTang wrote:

Re: Anatomy and Physiology B/C
epicardium has dual role, functions as the outermost layer of heart wall as well as innermost layer of heart covering (Visceral layer of serous pericardium)WangwithaTang wrote:oh, okay. But isn't the epicardium part of the pericardium?Here wrote:The pericardium is a sac enclosing the heart or surrounding the heart wall, rather than being an actual layer of the heart wall.WangwithaTang wrote:Just a quick question, are the three walls of the heart the epicardium, endocardium, and myocardium or pericardium, endocardium, and myocardium? Because I thought the pericardium was the outermost layer of the heart, but the University of Florida invitational (C) said it was epicardium.
so heart wall - from innermost - endocardium (covers the valves also and is continuous with endothelium of blood vessels)
Myocardium
epicardium
heart coverings (pericardium) from innermost - Visceral layer of serous pericardium (same as epicardium)
Parietal layer of serous pericardium (separated from visceral layer by pericardial space and fluid)
Fibrous pericardium

If anyone's started working on next year's topics, I've got a quizlet set for learning how to identify the muscles on the list from 2016: https://quizlet.com/122679768/anatomy-p ... ash-cards/

Re: Anatomy and Physiology B/C
Are there any chances that in 2019-2020 anatomy they will do systems that are not skeletal, muscular, etc?

Unlikely. They haven't deviated from the new rotation since it was implemented in 2016.donutsandcupcakes wrote:Are there any chances that in 2019-2020 anatomy they will do systems that are not skeletal, muscular, etc?
