Where does the blood pumped out of the right atrum go to?

The blood then flows into to the right ventricle, and out into the pulmonary artery through the pulmonic valve.


What happens after blood travels through the pulmonary semilunar valve?

It goes through the pulmonary artery, to the lung. Becomes oxygenated, and goes to the left atrium. It is pumped through the Mitral valve, into the Left Ventricle. Left Ventricle pumps it through the aortic valve to the aorta.


Which chamber discharges its contents through the aortic valve?

The left ventricle discharges its blood through the aortic valve.


What two heart chambers contract last in a normal cardiac cycle?

FIRST: Atrial contractions: - Right atrium forces the blood into the Right ventricle (through the tricuspid valve) - Left atrium forces the blood into the Left ventricle (through the the Mitral (or Bicuspid valve) FOLLOWED BY: Ventrical conctractions: - Right ventricle forces the blood into the Pulmonary trunk (through the Pulmonary semilunar valve) - Left ventricle forces the blood into the Aorta (through the Aortic semilunar valve). Contractions in both atrium happen simultaniously, just like contractions in both ventricles. More info can be found on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart


The number of valves thorugh which blood leaves the heart?

2 valves: pulmonary valve- blood leaving from the right ventricle passes through it towards the lungs; aortic valve- blood leaving from the left ventricle passes through it to the body (by way of the aorta)

Which chamber of the heart pumps blood through the aorta to the body?

What is Nonspecific Intraventricular conduction delay?

It is a condition in which there is slowed electrical conduction through a ventricle of the heart; usually secondary to cardiomegaly or cardiac failure


The cerebrospinal fluid flows through what into the third ventricle?

What ventricle is responsible for blood flow through the pulmonary circulation?

right ventricle

The right ventricle discharges blood through?

The right ventricle discharges blood through the pulmonary artery, which leads to the lungs.


Oxygenated blood leaves through which ventricle?

Oxygenated blood is pumped out of the heart by the left ventricle.


What is the function of a frog's ventricle?

A frog's ventricle pumps blood out of the heart through its body. Our left ventricle does the same thingto pump out blood.


Blood leaves the right ventricle then passes through a valve and enters what blood vessel?

through seminular valve at the time of ventricle contaraction blood from right ventricle is pumped to lungs.


What is the ventricle?

The right and left ventricle almost have the same job. The left ventricle has a harder job then the right ventricle. The right ventricle only has to contract and blood is forced out of the heart through a large vessel. And then has to pump the blood into the lungs. The left ventricle has a lot harder job it actually works six times more harder then the right ventricle. The left ventricle has to pump blood through your WHOLE body. Yea it has a lot harder job. :)


What does the lateral ventricle communicate with?

The lateral ventricles are in the brain and connect to the third ventricle through the foreman of Monroe.
