What else can I help you with?
What makes the valves between atriums open and close?
There are no valves between the atria. The valves between the atria and ventricles close when the ventricles contract.
What happen after depolarization of the ventricles?
The ventricles contract.
When atria relax ventricles do what?
When relaxed, the atria expand, and then the ventricles contract.
Do the ventricles contract at the apex or at the base of the heart?
Not really sure what you mean by the base, the ventricles contract from the Apex (which is at the bottom) upwards.
Why is it an advantage for the ventricles to contract from the bottom?
The pulmonary artery and the aorta lead upward and away from the ventricles. Since the ventricles contract from the bottom, blood is more efficiently pushed out of the heart.
Do atria contract before the ventricles?
Yes, atria contracts before the ventricles.
When doe the ventricles contract?
Systole
When do the ventricles contract?
After the blood pumps from the atria to the ventricles, during systole.Systole
What does the atrioventricular node cause to contract?
The atrioventricular (AV) node causes the ventricles of the heart to contract. It serves as a critical relay point in the electrical conduction system, receiving impulses from the sinoatrial (SA) node and delaying them briefly before transmitting them to the ventricles via the bundle of His. This delay allows the atria to fully contract and empty their blood into the ventricles before the ventricles contract.
Where is blood pumped when ventricles contract?
Into the heart
When the ventricles get very full it does what strongly?
contract
When the ventricles contract blood flows from the right ventricles to what?
The right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs.
