What is an aortic valve?

The heart is a 4 chambered organ. There is a right atrium, right ventricle, left atrium and left ventricle. Blood comes from the body into the right atrium, goes into the right ventricle, then is pumped into the lungs, comes back to the heart into the left atrium and then passes into the left ventricle to be distributed to the body. The blood is pumped out of the left ventricle into the aorta. The aortic valve is located between the left ventricle and the aorta. The aortic valve is closed until the contraction of the left ventricle. The aortic valve opens and the blood is pumped into the aorta. Once the blood passes into the aorta, the aortic valve closes.
