The chordae tendineae are fibrous cords that attach the papillary muscles of the heart to the atrioventricular (AV) valves, specifically the mitral and tricuspid valves. They play a crucial role in preventing the valves from inverting or prolapsing during ventricular contraction, ensuring proper blood flow direction. By anchoring the valves, the chordae tendineae help maintain the integrity of the heart's structure during the cardiac cycle.
chordate tendinae ,tendinous chords ,they manege the voles opening and closing
papillary muscles
The role of the chordae tendinae (or heart strings) hold the positions of the flaps from the valves (tricuspid and the bicuspid/mitral valve) they basically help with preventing the backward flow of blood. The tendinae are attached to the valves and the papillary muscles :)
The heart valves are attached to the chordae tendinae and papillary muscles which function to open the valves.
Chordae tendinae is attached to papillary muscle and the valves.
chordate phylum
The chordae tendinae is situated in the heart. They control the valves which pumps blood through the heart

Being 'chordate' means that the animal has a backbone.
Heart strings (scientific name chordae tendinae) are located in the heart. They are believed to brace and support the heart.
I do not know to be honest, sorry.
Yes, chordae tendinae and papillary muscles are present in a pig's heart. Chordae tendinae are fibrous cords that connect the papillary muscles to the valves of the heart, providing support and preventing backflow of blood. Papillary muscles contract to tighten the chordae tendinae during ventricular contraction, aiding in the proper function of the heart valves.
