A middle-aged, overweight man suffers a heart attack (myocardial infarction). About a week later the
wall of his left ventricle, weakened by the presence of an area of dead muscle, ruptures. Blood from the
left ventricle exits through the rupture and enters the pericardial space. As pressure rises in the
pericardial space, it compresses the ventricles and begins to affect the filling of the ventricles during
diastole. If atrial pressure remains the same, which of these is the lowest (pericardial) pressure when
there will be no ventricular filling? - Answer 10mmHg

EXCEPT: - Answer Substantia Nigra

neurons? - Answer Acetylcholine
