The blood flows into the right atrium from either the Superior vena cava or the inferior vena cava it then passes through the bicuspid valves into the right ventricle. The valves in the heart are all one way valves, so blood cannot flow through the valve in the opposite way. Once in the right ventricle it will pass through another valve into the pulmonary trunk into the pulmonary artery (right or left) and then to the lung where it will be oxygenated.

Does the systematic circulation flow to the left atrium?

Yes, blood from both the inferior and the superior vena cava flow into the right atrium. Blood from the pulmonary veins coming from the lungs flow into the left atrium.


The tricuspid valve separates which two structures?

the pulmonary artery


Does blood flow from the ventricle to the atria?

No, it flows from the Right Atrium to the Right Ventricle then to the Left Atrium to the Left Ventricle. Hope this helps!


Where does the blood flow from when it enters the tricupsid valve?

Right atrium


What is the correct name for the heart auricle?

The correct name for the heart auricle is the "auricula." Each auricula is a small, ear-shaped pouch attached to the atrium of the heart, with the right auricle associated with the right atrium and the left auricle with the left atrium. These structures help increase the capacity of the atria and play a role in regulating blood flow.


What is the name of the valve that opens to allow blood to travel from the right atrium to the right ventrcle?

The tricuspid valve is the valve that opens to allow blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle in the heart. This valve prevents blood from flowing back into the right atrium when the right ventricle contracts.


Is this a correct statement about the heart valves the tricuspid valve divides the left atrium from the left ventricle?

No, the tricuspid valve permits one-way blood flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle. There is no valve or natural opening that allows blood flow from the right atrium to the left atrium.


Do valves control the flow of blood from the artia to the ventricles?

No, it flows from the Right Atrium to the Right Ventricle then to the Left Atrium to the Left Ventricle. Hope this helps!


What are the four chambered heart?

The four chambers of the heart are (in order of blood flow) the right atrium, right ventricle, left atrium, and left ventricle.


What is the circuit called from the time a drop of blood is dropped in the right atrium to the time its dropped in the left atrium?

The vascular circuit that connects the right atrium to the left atrium is the pulmonary circulation.
