What happens to the blood when the left ventricle contracts?
Contraction of the left ventricle results in the blood being pumped out into the Aorta (through the Aortic Valve) where it is then sent to all the body's arteries. The mitral valve prevents blood flowing into the left atrium when the ventricle contracts.
Which ventricles contract blood is pumped?
The left ventricle contracts to pump blood through the systemic circulation. The right ventricle contracts to pump blood through the pulmonary circuit.
Are the tendinous cords of the tricuspid valve tightened when the right ventricle contracts?
Yes
Does mitral valve stenosis causes blood to leak into left atrium when ventricle contracts?
no, it only makes it harder for the left ventricle to get blood
Which part of the heart contracts and forces oxygen-rich blood throughout the body?
ventricle
What happens in the left ventricle of the heart?
It contracts to push blood throughout the body.
Where does blood flow when the ventricle contracts?
Blood flows to the heart when the ventricle contracts

When the left ventricle contracts what does the blood pass into?
the heart
When the left ventricle contracts blood flows to what?
Aotra
Is the after load the resistance what the ventricle in the heart has to contract against?
The resistance against which the ventricle contracts is know as afterload.
Which ventricles contract blood is pumped?
The left ventricle contracts to pump blood through the systemic circulation. The right ventricle contracts to pump blood through the pulmonary circuit.
What happens when the ventricles of your contract?
The "beat" of your heart is the contraction of the right and left ventricles. The right atrium passes blood from the body into the right ventricle -- when the ventricle contracts, it forces shut the valve leading back to the atrium, and the blood is pushed into the pulmonary arteries that lead to the lungs. The blood returns from the lungs to the left atrium, and flows into the left ventricle. When the left ventricle contracts, the blood is pushed out of the ventricle into the aorta, the body's main artery, to be carried through the arterial system to the various parts of the body.
What does the left artriam do?
The left atrium is like a "turbocharger" for the left ventricle of the heart. It fills with oxygenated blood from the lungs, then contracts to pump the blood into the left ventricle. Here, the ventricle then contracts to pump the oxygenated blood all around your body.
When the right ventricle contracts where is blood push to?
When the right ventricle contracts it is pushes blood to the pulmonary arteries and to the capillaries of the lungs where exchange of gases takes place
What happens when the ventricles of heart contract?

The blood returns from the lungs to the left atrium, and flows into the left ventricle. When the left ventricle contracts, the blood is pushed out of the ventricle into the aorta, the body's main artery, to be carried through the arterial system to the various parts of the body.
Where does each ventricle pump blood when it contracts?
There are two ventricles in a normal, adult, human heart: the left and right ventricles. When the left ventricle contracts, oxygenated blood is pumped into the aorta. In contrast, when the right ventricle contracts, deoxygenated blood is pumped into the pulmonary arteries.
