After the blood leaves the pulmonary veins it goes to the left atrium then passes the bicuspid valve and enters the left ventricle where it is pumped to the aorta and the rest of the body. Pulmonary veins are the only veins that carry oxygenated blood.

Blood comes back from the body via the inferior and superior vena cava. It goes into the right atrium, through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. From there to the pulmonary arteries (left and right) to pick up oxygen and give off carbon dioxide.

What semilunar valve sees oxygenated blood?

bicuspid


Why is the left atrioventricular valve called the bicuspid?

the left atrioventricular valve is also called bicuspid valve as it consist of two muscular flab or leaflets that prevents the backward flow of blood from the left ventricle to the left atrium.


2 other names for the bicuspid valve?

left atrioventricular valve and left mitral valve


Trace the blood from the mitral to the tricuspid valve by the way of the great toe?

Note: Mitral valve = bicuspid valve = aortic valve. And tricuspid valve = right atrioventricular valve. Blood flows through the aortic valve --> aorta --> arteries --> arterioles --> capillaries in the great toe --> venules --> veins --> superior and inferior venacavae --> right atrium --> tricuspid valve. This above is incorrect. The Mitral valve is the bicuspid valve but it is NOT the aortic valve. So blood flows from the Mitral valve to the left ventricle to the aortic valve to the aorta. The rest appears correct.


What keeps the blood from flowing back into the right atrium after it has entered the right ventricle?

The tricuspid valve prevents the backflow of blood to the right atrium..The tricuspid valve separates the right atrium from the right ventricle. It opens to allow the de-oxygenated blood collected in the right atrium to flow into the right ventricle. It closes as the right ventricle contracts, preventing blood from returning to the right atrium; thereby, forcing it to exit through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary artery.

Does blood that passes through the tricuspid valve enter the left ventricle?

No, blood enters the left ventricle through the bicuspid or mitral valve.I remember it this way --TRIcuspid valve is on the-RIght side of the heart.

Where does blood flow to after it leaves the atrium and passes through the biscuspid valve?

Oxygenated blood from the lungs flow back into the heart via the left pulmonary veins into the left atrium, through the bicuspid (mitral) valve, into the left ventricle.
