How many heart valves would a blood cell travelling from the renal vein the the pulmonary vein pass through?

Two, the blood will flow into the right atrium through the tricuspid valve (#1) into the right ventricle. The right ventricle will contract and send the blood through the pulmonary semilunar valve (#2) to the lung. The blood will return through the pulmonary vein but will not pass through any more heart valves until it passes the left atrium.

How many heart valves would a blood cell travelling from the renal vein to the pulmonary vein pass through?
Two valves
Through what valves must the blood move in order to get into the pulmonary artery?
No it does not
What is the Pulmonary value's main function?
All valves in the cardiovascular system are to stop blood flowing backwards through the system. The pulmonary vavle stops blood flowing back from the pulmonary artery into the right ventricle.
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.
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)
What are the main blood passages to the heart?
pulmonary and aorta valves.
Which cardiac structure control blood flow to the heart?
The semilunar valves control the flow of blood from the heart. The aortic semilunar valve controls the flow of blood from the left ventricle to the aorta, and the pulmonary semilunar valve controls the flow of blood from the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery.Pulmonary valve
When are the pulmonary valves closed?
When the blood flows from the right ventricle, it passes through pulmonic valve before it reaches pulmonary artery. Pulomic valve closes as blood passes here to prevent back flow.
Compare the functions of the three types of blood vessels in the circulatory system?
the blood comes in the through the superior and inferior vena cava. it then passes through the right atrium and is pushed through by the bicuspid valves. it enters the right ventricles and exits the heart through the right semi lunar valves and the pulmonary arteries and into the lungs. it is then brought back in through the pulmonary veins and passes through the left atrium. it is pushed through by the bicuspid valves and into the left atrimu and exits through the left semi lunar valves and out through the aorta to the rest of the body.
What regulates the flow of blood through the heart?
Once blood enters the heart it's flow is regulated by the bicuspid and tricuspid valve which connects the atriums to the ventricles.
What is the definition of valve?
Heart valves: There are four heart valves. All are one-way valves. Blood entering the heart first passes through the tricuspid valve and then the pulmonary valve. After returning from the lungs, the blood passes through the mitral (bicuspid) valve and exits via the aortic valve.
Trace the pathway of blood through the heart Include major veins arteries chambers and valves.?
You're better off with a diagram, but I'll try... Blood enters from the right through the vena cava into the right atrium. The tricuspid valves let it into the right ventricle. From there the semilunar valves let it into the pulmonary artery. From there it goes to the lungs, and returns, oxygenated, in the pulmonary vein, entering on the far left. It goes into the left atrium and then is let into the left ventricle by the bicuspid valves. From there it goes through the semilunar valves to the aorta and from there to the rest of the body.
