There is mixing of oxygenated and de-oxygenated blood. The body receives the mixture, whose oxygen is not sufficient. This makes the heart pump harder to provide the body with what it needs. It may lead to an enlarged heart, and heart failure if not corrected.
There are no valves between the atria. The valves between the atria and ventricles close when the ventricles contract.
semilunar valves
the difference between the ventricles and the atria is that the ventricles are thicker
The Foramen Ovale or Oval Window it's the opening between the two Atria, window is covered by a flap of tissue that is a vavle.
The atrioventricular node and the bundle of HIS are the electrical conduction link between the atria and the ventricles.
The atrioventricular valve acts as a control device between the atria and the ventricles. They prevent blood from moving back into the atria during contraction.
The term "atria" refers to the plural form of the word "atrium," which is a chamber of the heart that receives blood from the veins. The atria are the upper chambers of the heart, while the ventricles are the lower chambers responsible for pumping blood out of the heart.
