How do semi lunar valves work?

Semi-lunar valves, located in the heart at the entrance of the aorta and pulmonary artery, function to prevent the backflow of blood into the ventricles after contraction. They open when the ventricles contract, allowing blood to flow into the aorta and pulmonary artery. Once the ventricles relax, the valves close due to the pressure change, ensuring that blood does not return to the heart. This mechanism is crucial for maintaining unidirectional blood flow and efficient circulation throughout the body.

What are semi diurnal tides?

Semi-diurnal tides are a type of tidal pattern characterized by two high tides and two low tides each lunar day, typically occurring about every 12 hours. This tidal cycle results from the gravitational pull of the moon and sun on Earth's oceans, leading to a regular rise and fall of sea levels. Semi-diurnal tides are common in many coastal areas, where the difference in height between high and low tides can vary significantly. They contrast with diurnal tides, which feature only one high tide and one low tide each lunar day.
