What is the third chamber of the heart that the blood reaches?
FutureLPGAgolfer
there are 4 chambers of the heart. the left and right atrium and the left and right ventricle. the left atrium is where the blood enters the heart and leaves through the left ventricle and the opposite for the only side only to the lungs instead of the body

∙ 16y agoBlood from the body enters through a heart valve into the right atrium. When the right atrium fills, it contracts and the blood passes through a valve into the right ventricle. When the right ventricle fills, it contracts and squeezes the blood into the pulmonary artery from where it goes to the lungs to get fresh oxygen.

Describe the position and role of the valves in the heart?
There are 4 valves in the heart. The first valve though which the blood passes is the tricuspid which is one of the atrioventriculars (between a ventricle and an atrium) and stops backflow of blood from the right ventricle tothe right atrium. The next valve is the pulmonary valve, one of the semilunars, which stops backflow form the pulmonary artery to the right ventricle. The third valve is the mitral or bicuspid which (the other atrioventricular) which stops backflow from the left ventricle to the left atrium. The last valve is the aortic valve (the other semilunar) which stops backflow from the aorta to the left ventricel.
Vessels carrying blood to the heart?
There are 2 or 3 methods for blood to return to the heart. The first method is by pressure. Enough pressure is generated in the heart to push the blood through the arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, veins, and back into the heart. The right side of the heart only pumps blood into the lungs and back to the heart and requires less pressure than the left side that pumps to the rest of the body, although the volume must be identical for the two halves. The second method is a pumping method by muscle contraction. This is especially true of the calf muscles in the leg pumping the blood back to the heart. A third method would be gravity for anything above the heart, including the head, or any limb that was elevated. Elevation can be used to decrease pressure and help reduce swelling.
Which is more medial heart or sternum?
Your sternum is in mid-line. One third of your heart is on the right side and two third lies on left side behind your sternum.
Which system controls heart rate and blood pressure?
The third apsect of the cardiac cycle is the rest period, however it is not separate from the sytole and diastole. It is merely the time frame during a cycle when both the artia and ventricles are in disastole at the same time. It thus can be said that the period of rest overlaps atrial and ventricular diastole.

How does the three-chambered heart equip amphibians for life on land?
The frog's three-chambered heart more efficiently delivers oxygen to body cells as compared to the fish's two chambered heart. As compared to a four-chambered heart, the frog's three-chambered heart allows blood to bypass the lungs when the lungs are not functioning in gas exchange. In the three-chambered heart of amphibians, one chamber receives blood from the lungs and another receives blood from THE REST OF THE BODY, INCLUDING THE SKIN. Blood from both chambers then moves to the third chamber, which pumps blood back to the lungs, skin, and rest of the body. This results in some mixing, BUT EXPERIMENTS USING DYES HAVE SHOWN THAT BLOOD PUMPED TO THE LUNGS AND SKIN COMES PRIMARILY FROM THE SKIN AND THE REST OF THE BODY AND BLOOD PUMPED TO THE HEAD COMES PRIMARILY FROM THE LUNGS. BLOOD PUMPED TO THE REST OF THE BODY IS A MIXTURE OF OXYGEN-POOR BLOOD FROM THE REST OF THE BODY AND BLOOD FROM THE SKIN AND LUNGS, WHICH CARRIES OXYGEN. IHOWEVER, in amphibians, the skin is much more important than the lungs as an organ for gas exchange, especially when the frog is under water. THE LACK OF TOTAL SEPARATION OF THE BLOOD IN THE HEART ALLOWS BLOOD TO DETOUR AROUND THE LUNGS WHEN THE FROG IS UNDER WATER. AS COMPARED TO A TWO-CHAMBER HEART, DOUBLE CIRCULATION THROUGH THE HEART RESULTS IN A MUCH HIGHER BLOOD PRESSURE IN THE ARTERIES GOING TO THE BODY.
What are the three types of hearts in vertebrates?
The first type of heart is the simple two chambered heart, which is found in fish. The second is the third chamber heart, which is found in amphibians and reptiles. Mammals and birds have four chambered hearts.
What are two diseases that affect the heart?
A heart attack and high blood pressure:coronary heart disease - disease of the blood vessels supplying the heart muscle (For example: Heart attack/ Myocardial infarction)cerebrovascular disease - disease of the blood vessels supplying the brain (For example: Stroke)
What does the 3 numbers blood pressure reading mean?
The upper reading is the systolic blood pressure while the lower reading is the diastolic blood pressure. Systole is the contraction of the heart while diastole is the relaxation of the heart.
What is the blood vessel that caries blood to the heart?
Inferior vena cava and superior vena cava carries the deozygenated blood from the body to the heart. The pulmonary artery carries blood to the lungs from the heart. the pulmonary VEINS carry blood to the heart from the lungs.
Do frogs spened more time in water or on the land?
Most frogs live terrestrial, on land. Some are aquatic and never leave the water but are a minority. Most frogs lay their eggs in water but some do not and live completely terrestrial. They lay their eggs in moist environments and don't have an aquatic larval stage.

List the organs of the circulatory system?
The main organ of the circulatory system is the heart. Some consider the blood an organ as well, since it is basically liquid tissue. The third and final component of the circulatory system is the blood vessels - veins and arteries - that carry the blood throughout the body.
