What are the hearts two atrioventricular valves and two semilunar valves?
Tricuspid valve has three flaps and it is located between the right auricle and right ventricle. It prevents the blood from flowing back into the auricle. The mitral or bicuspid valve is situated between left auricle and left ventricle. It has two flaps which help in maintaining the blood flow in one direction (from left auricle to left ventricle). Tricuspid and bicuspid valves are together called auriculo-ventriclar valves. Semilunar valves has flap which resembles half moon. Pulmonary semilunar valve keep the direction of blood flow from right ventricle to lungs and aortic semilunar valve keep the direction of blood flow from left ventricle to aorta.
What is the funcion of the right ventricle?
It pumps blood to the lungs and back into the left ventricle
Blood flow from the abdomen to what ventricle?
It does not flow back to a ventricle......it flows back to through the inferior vena cava and dumps into the Right Atrium....then into the Right Ventricle!
What is the process of the right ventricle?
The right ventricle pumps blood from the heart to the lungs and back to the heart
Name the part of the circaletory system that carries deoxygenated blood back to the lungs to pick up more oxygen?
Veins take the deoxygenated blood the the right hand side of the heart. The right atrium/auricle (in the heart) pumps blood to the right ventricle(also in the heart), which pumps blood to:The pulmonary arteries. Which take the deoxygenated blood to the Lungs.
How is blood Traced from left ventricle to the hand hand back to the right atrium?
from the left ventricle, to the aorta
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 separates the aorta from the left ventricle that prevents blood from flowing back into the left ventricle?
The bicuspid valve is the valve that separates the left ventricle from the aorta.
What is the role of valves?
prevent the back flow of blood from ventricle to aorta
What structure keep blood in the blood vessels from flowing back to the ventricle?
dont fricken know
It pumps blood from the heart into the aorta?
The left ventricle. Blood from the body comes into the right atrium goes into the right ventricle and is then pumped to the lung comes back to the left atrium and then left ventricle to the aorta to the body.
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.
