Some valves lie between the atria and some valves lie between the atrium and the ventricle
The difference between lub and dub (The heart sounds S1 and S2 of a heartbeat) is that the lub occurs when atrioventricular valves close, and dub occurs when the aortic and pulmonary valves close (valves leading out of the heart from the left and right ventricles).
Arteries carry blood away from the heart. Veins return blood to the heart.
Valves can be found in the heart. They sit between the Atria and the Ventricles and help aid cardiovascular activity.
Yes the "heart beat" is just the sound of the valves opening and closing, not the sound of the blood being pumped.
Due to pressure changes in different chambers of the heart. For example, when the atria contract, the bicuspid and tricuspid valves open. They get closed, when the ventricles contract. When the ventricles contract the aortic and pulmonary valves open. Aortic and pulmonary valves close, when the ventricles relax.
Yes
It means "atrioventricular". It refers to the valves between the atria and the ventricles.
The atrioventricular valves are located between the atria and the ventricles. The semilunar valves are located between the ventricles and the arteries leaving the heart.
Heart sounds are created by the relationship between the valves of the heart and the surface of the thorax.
lub dub lub is when the av valves close and dub is when the semi lunar valves close
The AV valves lie between the atria and the ventricles of the heart. The closing of these valves produces the lub-dub sound heard when the heart is auscultated.
They are the representation of the heart's sounds, one made by interior valves closing and one by the exterior valves at the exit of the ventricles.Lub: Valves closing between atria and ventricles.Dub: Aortic and pulmonary valves closing (semilunar valves).
