What else can I help you with?
Does the ventricles pump blood into the arteries?
Yes.
What pumps blood away from heart?
Arteries carry blood away from the heart.
What is the first flowing of blood in your body?
It's a circle, thus there is no first in the long run ... but as the blood 'pools' in the ventricles during each heart beat, then "first flow" is either within the ventricles OR through the main arteries (aortic and pulmonary).
What 2 jobs do the valves of the heart do?
Both AV valves, the bicuspid and tricuspid, (separating the ventricles from the atria) prevent blood from flowing back into the atria when the ventricles contract. Both the semilunar valves (separating the arteries from the ventricles) prevent blood from flowing back from the arteries once it has been pumped out of he ventricles, and thus, out of the heart. The difference is that the AV valves are contracted when they are CLOSED, but the semilunar valves are contracted when OPEN. Otherwise, I can't think of another major job besides preventing backflow.
Blood is kept from flowing back into the ventricles by the action of the what?
semilunar
Do arteries carry blood from the ventricles of the heart to the organs of the body?
Yes
What keep blood in the blood vessels from flowing back to the ventricles?
dont fricken know
These are the flaps that stop blood from flowing the wrong way?
There are atrioventricular valves on each side of the heart that keep blood from flowing from the ventricles back up into the atria. There are also semilunar valves that prevent blood from flowing from the pulmonary arteries and aorta back into the right and left ventricles, respectively.
What transports blood from the right and left ventricles of the heart to all body parts?
the ventricles are like pumps in the heart and your pacemaker sends them shocks to keep working. ventricles pump blood into arteries.
What carry blood to the atria?
Veins carry blood to the atria. In contrast, arteries carry blood away from the ventricles.
Blood flowing away from the heart travels in?
Arteries
What is the blood vessel that carries oxygen poor blood from the right ventricles of the heart to the lungs?
Pulmonary Arteries
