What are the hearts two atrioventricular valves and two semilunar valves?

Tricuspid valve has three flaps and it is located between the right auricle and right ventricle. It prevents the blood from flowing back into the auricle. The mitral or bicuspid valve is situated between left auricle and left ventricle. It has two flaps which help in maintaining the blood flow in one direction (from left auricle to left ventricle). Tricuspid and bicuspid valves are together called auriculo-ventriclar valves. Semilunar valves has flap which resembles half moon. Pulmonary semilunar valve keep the direction of blood flow from right ventricle to lungs and aortic semilunar valve keep the direction of blood flow from left ventricle to aorta.


What is the funcion of the right ventricle?

It pumps blood to the lungs and back into the left ventricle


What is the process of the right ventricle?

The right ventricle pumps blood from the heart to the lungs and back to the heart


Name the part of the circaletory system that carries deoxygenated blood back to the lungs to pick up more oxygen?

Veins take the deoxygenated blood the the right hand side of the heart. The right atrium/auricle (in the heart) pumps blood to the right ventricle(also in the heart), which pumps blood to:The pulmonary arteries. Which take the deoxygenated blood to the Lungs.


What mechanism prevents the blood from flowing from the left ventricle back into the left atrium?

The mitral valve prevents blood from flowing back from the left ventricle to the left atrium in the heart.


How is blood Traced from left ventricle to the hand hand back to the right atrium?

from the left ventricle, to the aorta


What is the function of the Mitral valve?

a passage way from the left atrium to the left ventricle.It prevents back flow of blood from the left ventricle to the left atrium.prevents backflow of blood from the left ventricle into the left atrium.


Blood flow from the abdomen to what ventricle?

Blood flows from the abdomen to the right atrium of the heart. From there, it moves to the right ventricle, then to the lungs for oxygenation, and finally to the left atrium and left ventricle to be pumped out to the body.


From the atrium through the tricuspid valve to the?

The blood flows from the atrium through the tricuspid valve to the right ventricle. The tricuspid valve prevents backflow of blood from the right ventricle back into the right atrium when the ventricle contracts.

The bicuspid valve is the valve that separates the left ventricle from the aorta.


What is the role of valves?

prevent the back flow of blood from ventricle to aorta
