When the right ventricle contracts (or is squeezed), the increase in its internal pressure will cause the right atrioventricular valve to close so the fluid doesn't flow backwards into the atrium.
ventricles
Answer: D. All of the above Explanation: In Human anatomy, cardiac cycle can be defined as a complete heartbeat of the human heart which comprises of sequential alternating contraction and relaxation of the atria and ventricles, therefore causing blood to flow unidirectionally (one direction) throughout the human body. Generally, the cardiac cycle occurs in two (2) stages; Diastole : in this stage, the ventricles is relaxed and would be filled with blood. Systole: at this stage, the muscles contracts and thus, allow blood to be pushed through the atria. Cardiac output can be defined as the volume of blood that is being pumped by the mammalian heart through the left and right ventricle per unit time (minute). The following conducting systems of the heart cause the ventricles to contract; I. Atrioventricular (AV) node: it's a component of the electrical conduction system of the mammalian heart located in the Koch triangle which connect the ventricles and atria electrically. II. Atrioventricular (AV) bundle: it's a specialized tissue that transmits electrical impulse from the atrioventricular (AV) node to the Purkinje fibres of the ventricles. III. Purkinje fibers: it's a network of specialized cells that comprises of glycogen and they transmit cardiac action potentials in a rapid manner from the atrioventricular (AV) bundle to the myocardium of the ventricles. Furthermore, the right atrioventricular valve (AV) also referred to as the tricuspid valve is located on the right dorsal side of the human heart. The right atrioventricular valve (AV) comprises of three (3) leaflets (flaps) which opens and closes in order to allow for the flow of blood from the right atrium of the human heart to the right ventricle. Also, the right atrioventricular valve is saddled with the responsibility of preventing blood from flowing backward in the mammalian heart.
after the first heart sound is made ventricles starts emptying.
The heart has two contraction cycles, one is the systole and the other one is the diasole. Both are fired by one impulse from the Cranial Nerve X. The delay required for the ventricles to contract are a result of the atrrioventricular node that pauses the impule until the ventricles are filled with blood.
The ventricles are fluid-filled cavities in the brain. When one or more of these cavities shrink in size, often due to overdrainage by shunts, it is known as a collapsed ventricle.
The ventricles are the fluid-filled cavities of the brain.
The atrioventricular valves are responsible for preventing blood from flowing back into the atria at the moment the ventricles contract. These valves are situated at the point where the ventricles and atria meet. Atrioventricular valves are two in number; the mitral valve and tricuspid valve.
Normal heart sounds (often called lub-dub) are caused by the pressure changes in the ventricles closing the various heart valves. The first sound, lub, is caused by the closing of the atrioventricular valves after the ventricles have filled with blood and as the ventricles begin to contract. The second sound, dub, is caused by the closing of the semilunar valves as the ventricles relax after pushing blood forward.

Ventricles
An enlarged ventricle means that there is swelling and or fluid filled spaced around the ventricles. There are ventricles in the brain as well as the heart. When the ventricles are enlarged it can cause a lot of distress on the body.

Those holes are called Ventricles, and together are part of the ventricular system. There are 4 ventricles altogether in the brain: 2 lateral ventricles (right and left) a third ventricle and a fourth ventricle (names are not very original, but thankfully easy to remember).
The ventricles are fluid filled cavities of the brain.
Careful - ventricles are just "hollow" spaces (normally filled with fluid) so you've got two ventricles in the heart and two more in the brain.
