    The document is a set of flashcards covering key terms related to cardiovascular anatomy and physiology. It defines the three layers of the pericardial sac, the four chambers of the heart, the three cardiac layers, the valves of the heart, and identifies the SA node as the pacemaker of the heart and the AV node as a backup pacemaker that can initiate heartbeat at a slower rate if the SA node fails. The flashcards provide a concise review of important structural components and functions of the heart and circulatory system.
