Describe the action of the right atrioventricular valve when you squeezed the water filled ventricle?

there is no right AV valve... it's called the tricuspid valve, as it has 3 cusps and in a perfect world the valve should close tightly and the water should flow out of the hole where the pulmonary artey used to be.


Is squeeze a action verb?

Yes, it's a word for the act of squeezing, such as to squeeze a lemon.


What is the action of the right atrioventricular valve when you squeeze the water filled right ventricles?

When the right ventricle contracts (or is squeezed), the increase in its internal pressure will cause the right atrioventricular valve to close so the fluid doesn't flow backwards into the atrium.


Most of the heart's pumping action occurs in the?

Left ventricle


What happen when the right atrium contracts?

At the beginning of the cardiac cycle after they receive an action potential from they synoatrial node. After a short pause, they produce the 'lubb' sound as the atrioventricular valves close to prevent back flow of blood.


What happens when the tricuspid valves close?

Firstly, the right ventricle is not filled with water. It is filled with blood. The tricuspid valve prevents the leakage of blood back into the right atrium when the ventricle enters systole (contraction). (MORE IN DETAIL!) Grammatically its not Firstly its First off. You are right the ventricle is not filled with water its mostly RBCs, plasma and WBCs are traveling else where in the body. Also yes "The tricuspid valve prevents the leakage of blood back into the right atrium when the ventricle enters systole (contraction)." is correct. But if you need it to be more detailed this is where it gets complicated: When the action takes place there is 2 sounds that the tricuspid valve can make 1: a "Dupp & Lubb" sound do to a recoil of blood into the next pulmonary artery. If Fluid does back track you get an extra noise. Like "swashing". If this 3rd noise doesnt happen (which is good) this makes it possible for there heart beat noises to take place. Sinoatrial node or known better as SA node generates action potentials on its own (pacemaker's usually come in play if this fails). Impulse passes along fibers to mass of specialized tissue (atrioventricular node). From AV node, the impulses, moves through bundle of His AV Bundle. The impulse divides into L & R branches underneath endocardium, then it gives rise to Purkinje fibers which causes the ventricular walls to contact as said above. :)))) -Rosie-
