Prevents blood movement from right ventricle to right artrium?
the tricuspid valve prevents the movement of blood from right ventricle to right atrium the ventricle opens into the aorta though the semi lunar valves
What happens to the blood when the left ventricle contracts?
Contraction of the left ventricle results in the blood being pumped out into the Aorta (through the Aortic Valve) where it is then sent to all the body's arteries. The mitral valve prevents blood flowing into the left atrium when the ventricle contracts.
Which valve is responsible for preventing the back flow of blood into the right ventricle?
The pulmonary semilunar valve, also called the pulmonic valve, prevents blood that was ejected out of the right ventricle into the pulmonary artery from flowing back into the right ventricle.
Which aorta pump blood to left ventricle ascending aorta or descending aorta?
Blood goes in this order... Right Atrium -> Right Ventricle -> Lungs -> Left Atrium -> Left Ventricle -> Ascending Aorta -> Descending Aorta. So neither pump blood to the the Left Ventricle but the Left Ventricle pumps blood to the ascending aorta.
What are all the valves in a heart?
There are four valves of two types (atrioventricular valves and semilunar valves). The four valves are :Tricuspid Valve (between the right atrium and the right ventricle)Pulmonary Valve* (semilunar valve between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery)Mitral Valve (between the left atrium and the left ventricle)Aortic Valve (semilunar valve between the left ventricle and the aorta)*sometimes called the Pulmonic ValveThis does not include the other two valves: the Thebesian valve, which can be sometimes absent in healthy individuals; and the eustachian valve, which is important during the fetal stages of life but is not necessary in adults.
The aortic valve separates the aorta from this structure?
The aortic valve is a tricuspid valve that separates the aorta from the left ventricle. The heart pumps blood from the left ventricle, through the aorta, to the body, and the aortic valve prevents the back flow of blood into the left ventricle as the ventricle relaxes and refills with blood from the left atrium.
What separates the left ventricle from aorta?
the aortic valve
Function of aortic valve?
The aortic valve helps with the process of pumping blood from the left ventricle to the aorta. It prevents the blood from going back to the left ventricle from the aorta.

What are the structures inside the veins that keep the blood from flowing backwards?
The aortic valve. When the left ventricle contracts, blood is ejected into the aorta. When the left ventricle relaxes the aortic valve stops blood from flowing from the aorta back into the left ventricle.
Which valve is responsible for preventing the back flow of blood into the right ventricle?
The pulmonary semilunar valve, also called the pulmonic valve, prevents blood that was ejected out of the right ventricle into the pulmonary artery from flowing back into the right ventricle.
What is the valve that prevents blood returning to the right ventricle after it pumps?
The aortic semilunar valve prevents backflow of blood from the aorta to the left ventricle.The aortic valve prevents backflow of blood from the aorta to the left ventricle of the heart.aortic valve
Which aorta pump blood to left ventricle ascending aorta or descending aorta?
Blood goes in this order... Right Atrium -> Right Ventricle -> Lungs -> Left Atrium -> Left Ventricle -> Ascending Aorta -> Descending Aorta. So neither pump blood to the the Left Ventricle but the Left Ventricle pumps blood to the ascending aorta.
What type of valve is the aortic valve?
To prevent blood from flowing back into the left ventricle.

What valves separate the chambers of the heart?
1)Tricuspid valve separates the right atrium from the right ventricle 2) Pulmonary (semilunar) valve separates the right ventricle from the pulmonary trunk leading to the pulmonary arteries 3) Bicuspid (Mitral) valve separates the left atrium from the left ventricle 4) Aortic valve separates the left ventricle from the aorta
