The heart has four chambers. Deoxygenated blood enters the right atrium from around the body via the superior and inferior vena cavae, and travels down through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle.
The right ventricle pumps the deoxygenated blood to the lungs to be oxygenated, via the pulmonary artery (the only artery that carries deoxygenated blood). It returns via the pulmonary vein (the only vein that carries oxygenated blood) into the left atrium.
Oxygenated blood then enters the left ventricle (the heart's principle pumping chamber, and has particularly thick muscular walls) from the left atrium through the mitral valve. The left ventricle pumps the oxygenated blood at sufficient pressure to travel round the entire body, through the aortic valve and into the aorta.

What else can I help you with?
What is the medical term meaning reverse flow of blood through the mitral or tricuspid valves?
Mitral regurgitation or tricuspid regurgitation is the medical term meaning backflow of blood through the mitral or tricuspid valves, respectively.
Valves separating atria and ventricles are cal led what valves?
for the right atrium and right ventricle, the tricuspid valve separates the two. For the left, the mitral valve separates the two.
What are the names for the two different sets of heart valves?
Atrioventricular valves Bicuspid Valve Tricuspid valve Pulmonary valve Aortic valve these are all the valves which are part of the heart.
Which valve gives lubb sound when blood hitting?
The tricuspid and bicuspid or mitral valves.
What valve of the heart has three valves with chordae tendineae?
No, only the atrio ventricular, or the the tricuspid and bicuspid valves, have heart strings

Valves separating atria and ventricles are cal led what valves?
for the right atrium and right ventricle, the tricuspid valve separates the two. For the left, the mitral valve separates the two.
What are the largest valves in the heart?
tricuspid and mitral
Where in the heart are the bicuspid and tricuspid valves located?
The bicuspid and tricuspid valves are located between the atria and the ventricles. The bicuspid or mitral valve is on the left, and the tricuspid is on the right.
The first sound of a cardiac cycle occurs when?
closure of the mitral and tricuspid valves.
What are the names for the two different sets of heart valves?
Atrioventricular valves Bicuspid Valve Tricuspid valve Pulmonary valve Aortic valve these are all the valves which are part of the heart.
What are the names of the valves in the top part of the ventricles?
tricuspid valve and mitral valve
The second heart sound is caused by?
Closure of the two atrioventricular valves, specifically the tricuspid and mitral valves.
Which valve gives lubb sound when blood hitting?
The tricuspid and bicuspid or mitral valves.
What structures prevent blood in the ventricles from backing up into the atrium?
the mitral and tricuspid valves
What valve of the heart has three valves with chordae tendineae?
No, only the atrio ventricular, or the the tricuspid and bicuspid valves, have heart strings
What valves are in the heart?
There are two valves in the heart. They are tricuspid valve and bicuspid valve.There is a possibility of the blood going back into the atria. This is prevented by these two valves, the tricuspid valve on the right side and the bicuspid valve on the left side.Tricuspid ValvePulmonary ValveMitral Valve (AKA Bicuspid Vlave)Aortic ValveThe four valves are known as:The tricuspid valveThe pulmonic or pulmonary valveThe mitral valveThe aortic valve
