Answer 1

Brenda -- you've asked several medical terminology questions this afternoon.

If you don't you know these answers, I suggest you either read your text materials or drop this class.

Use a dictionary if you don't understand some of the vocabulary.

Please note that Jiskha tutors HELP students -- but we are not an answer-supply forum.

Answer 2

Apex is the tip of the heart, try looking in your text book for a picture of the heart, usually there's a description of all the values...etc.
