A fifty five year old female is admitted to the coronary care unit C/O severe chest pain. The MD suspects she has had a “posterior wall myocardial infarction”.  Based on this information, she most likely has occluded her:

Under normal resting conditions, Blood moves through the alveolar-capillary system in about 0.25 seconds Blood moves through the alveolar-capillary system in about 0.75 seconds Oxygen and carbon dioxide pressures reach equilibrium in about 0.25 seconds Oxygen and carbon dioxide pressures reach equilibrium in about 0.75 seconds

____________ is defined as the force or pressure the ventricle must pump against.
