Where is the arota artery?
It is attached to your heart.
What do heart arota do in the heart?
Aorta sends oxygenated blood to body. Aorta is the biggest artery in the body.
What prevents the back flow of blood in the heart?
bicuspid (between left ventricle and atrium) and tricuspid (between right ventricle and atrium) are the 2 valves that prevent the backward flow of blood from the ventricles into the atria. There are two semi-lunar valves also prevent the backward flow of blood from arota to the left ventricle (Aortic valve) and from the Pulmonary Artery to the right ventricle (the Pulmonary valve).The valves at the top of the heart are the semi lunar vavles. These stop back flow from the pulmonary artire and pulmonary vein (to and from the lungs) The valves that stop back flow in the heart from the atruims to the ventricls are the tricuspid valve (on the right) and the bicuspid valve (on the left) (be carful here, because while the tricuspid valve is a universal term, bicuspid is not used in the USA, it is called something else whic escapes me at the moment) the valve that stops blood coming back into the heart from the aorta (main artery going to body) is the aortic valve and the the valve that stops back flow from the veina cava (main vien going back into the heart from the body) is just veina cava valve.
Where is the arota artery?
It is attached to your heart.
Where does the aorta receives its blood from?
the descending arota receives blood from the arotic arch/ ascending arota.
Why is the arota an artery?
Because it circulates blood.
What is the name of the largest blood vessel in the abdomen?
Arota
When the left ventricle contract blood flows to the?
when the left ventricular wall contracts, the mitral valve closes the left atrioventricular orifice, and the blood passes through the aortic valve into the aorta and its branches.
What do heart arota do in the heart?
Aorta sends oxygenated blood to body. Aorta is the biggest artery in the body.
What type of vessel holds the greatest volume of blood?
Veins, but there walls aren't that thick.
What blood vessel connects the artery and vein?
The capillaries are the blood vessels that connect arteries and veins. Capillaries are the site of gas exchange in the body.
What type of vessels are in the circulatory system?
veins capillaries arteies and for the heart there is the left and right ventricles left and right atriums the arota tricusbib valve bicusbib valve superior and inferior ven cava
Where does blood go when the venrticles contract?
when right ventricle contracts the blood goes to "lung" and when left ventricle contracts the blood goes to all part of our body. Correct, more specifically, throught the pulmonary artery on the right, and through the arota on the left side of the heart into systemic circulation.
What structure sets the pace for heart contraction?
Cardiac muscles don't contract in unison, if you listen to your heart beat you should hear two distinctive thumps (1 for the atria, 1 for the ventricles). I believe the structure you're looking for is the Sinoatrial Node (SA node) which is a bundle of nerves in the upper part of the right atrium, also known as the 'pace maker'. The electrical impulse from the node triggers a sequence of electrical events (from the SA Node to the A(trio)V(entricular) node to the Purkinje fibers) which are the cause of the beating/contracting
