Is the other pump in your heart move blood from the atria into the ventricles?

No, the other pump in the heart does not move blood from the atria into the ventricles. Instead, the atria receive blood returning to the heart, and they contract to push blood into the ventricles. The ventricles then pump blood out of the heart to the lungs and the rest of the body. This coordinated action ensures efficient blood circulation.

The Atria and Ventricles are parts of the heart not the blood. The Atria is the upper chambers of the heart and the Ventricles are the lower chambers of the heart.


Why do the AV valves close in response to the contraction of the ventricles?

The AV valves close in response to the contraction of the ventricles to prevent the backflow of blood from the ventricles into the atria, ensuring that blood flows in the correct direction through the heart and body.


When blood flows through the heart what force the blood out of the heart and into the arteries?

The atria Actually, it is the contractions (squeezing) of the ventricles (the lower parts of the heart), not the atria (the upper parts), that do the pumping. That's why the lower part of the heart is larger, and the muscular walls are thicker. The atria receive the blood from the body and pump it down into the ventricles.
