What is the muscle when the heart forces blood?
The ventricles are the lower heart chambers that contract to pump blood. The upper chambers, atria, also contract, but to a lesser degree.
What permits AV valves to function as one way valves?
Atrioventricular (AV) valves function as one-way valves due to their unique structure, which includes flaps or cusps that open in one direction. When the atria contract, the pressure forces the cusps to open, allowing blood to flow into the ventricles. Conversely, when the ventricles contract, the increased pressure causes the cusps to close tightly, preventing backflow of blood into the atria. Additionally, chordae tendineae and papillary muscles help maintain valve closure during ventricular contraction, ensuring unidirectional blood flow.
Contrast the forces with which the right and left ventricle contract How does this relate to each ventricle's function?
the left ventricle is more powerful because it has to pump blood through the whole bady, whereas the right ventricle only supplies the heart and lungs
What two heart chambers contract last in a normal cardiac cycle?
FIRST: Atrial contractions: - Right atrium forces the blood into the Right ventricle (through the tricuspid valve) - Left atrium forces the blood into the Left ventricle (through the the Mitral (or Bicuspid valve) FOLLOWED BY: Ventrical conctractions: - Right ventricle forces the blood into the Pulmonary trunk (through the Pulmonary semilunar valve) - Left ventricle forces the blood into the Aorta (through the Aortic semilunar valve). Contractions in both atrium happen simultaniously, just like contractions in both ventricles. More info can be found on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart
What happens in the heart during Systole?
During systole the thick muscular walls of the ventricles contract. This happens to both sides of the heart at about the same time.The contraction of the ventricular muscle raises the pressure in the ventricle. The high pressure in the ventricle forces the bicuspid valve to close and forces blood up the aorta.
What is a chamber of the heart that receives blood from the veins and forces it into a ventricle?
An atrium. There is a left atrium and a right, just like the ventricles.
Security forces signing bonus?
$2,000 for a six year contract, No sign on bonus for a four year contract.
What is the function of the bicuspid valve?
The Bicuspid Valve is much like the Tricuspid Valve. It allows blood to flow through into the ventricle, but prevents blood from entering back into the atrium. The difference is it only has two flaps instead of three.
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.

When should we use either the sine or cosine function in statics analysis?
In statics analysis, we use the sine function when dealing with forces that are perpendicular to a reference axis, and the cosine function when dealing with forces that are parallel to the reference axis.
