∙ 14y agoJust basics about heart:
Human heart is composed of 4 chambers.Upper chambers are called Atria (Right & Left)
and the lower chamber are called Ventricles. Between the right atria and right ventricle is the Tricuspid valve whereas between left atria and ventricles is the Bicuspid or Mitral valve. Right atrium is connected to Superior venecava and Inferior venacava whereas left atria is connected to four Pulmonary veins. Similarly, right ventricle is connected to the Pulmonary trunk(pulmonary artery) and left ventricle to Aorta(largest artery of the human body) which is furthur divided in to three branches called Brachiocephalic artery, Left Common Cartoid artery and Left Subcalvian artery.

It leave the right atrium through the AV valve.
Leave the right ventricles to the pulmonary artery past the semilunar valve.
Goes out the pulmonary arteries to the lungs.
Returns to the heart via the pulmonary veins.
Left atrium to the left ventricle past the left AV valve.
Left ventricle past the aortic semilunar valve, out the aorta.
