What mechanism prevents the blood from flowing from the left ventricle back into the left atrium?

The mitral valve prevents blood from flowing back from the left ventricle to the left atrium in the heart.


What is the function of the Mitral valve?

a passage way from the left atrium to the left ventricle.It prevents back flow of blood from the left ventricle to the left atrium.prevents backflow of blood from the left ventricle into the left atrium.


What kind of blood enter the left atrium?

oxygenated blood


The value that keeps blood from flowing back into the left atrium from the left ventricle is called the?

The value that prevents blood from flowing back into the left atrium from the left ventricle is called the mitral valve. It ensures unidirectional blood flow during the cardiac cycle, closing during ventricular contraction to prevent regurgitation into the atrium.


What chamber of the heart do the pulmonary veins enter?

the left atrium...it pumps blood thereThe pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart.


The blood passing through the arteries?

Oxygenated blood flows from the lungs to the left atrium contractions (heart muscle) cause the blood to leave the atrium and enter the left ventricle. Further contraction causes the blood to leave the atrium and enter the aorta.


Where does blood from the heart enter the Lungs?

Actually it is the Left Atrium


When ventricles contract the bicuspid valve prevents blood from flowing from-what?

The bicuspid valve, sometimes better known as the mitral valve, allows blood to flow in only one direction (assuming it is functional) from the left atrium to the left ventricle, it prevents blood from flowing back from the left ventricle into the left atrium.


Where does blood pumped by the left ventricle pass through?

Blood enters the left ventricle from the left atrium by passing through the mitral valve. The mitral valve functions to prevent blood from flowing back into the left atrium when the left ventricle contracts.


What vein does the blood enter the atrium from?

Depends on which atria you are asking about. Blood enters the right atrium from the vena cava and the left atrium from the pulmonary vein.


Where does the blood start before flowing to the heart?

Blood flows from the heart into the left atrium, into the left ventricle. From there, it flows from the right artrium into the left ventricle.


As the left ventricle contracts the blood is prevented from going back into the left atrium by a one-way valve called the?

The Mitral Valve is positioned between the left atrium and the left ventricle. Closing of the mitral valve prevents the blood from flowing back to the left atrium.
