How is back flow of blood in the heart prevented?
Back flow of blood in the heart is prevented by one-way valves. The blood is pushed through by the force of contraction, the valves close, blood can't flow back. The valves are: Tricuspid = between the upper chamber (Right atrium) and the lower chamber (Right ventricle) Pulmonary semilunar = between the Right ventricle and the Pulmonary trunk Mitral (or bicuspid) = between the Left atrium and the Left ventricle Aortic semilunar= between the Left ventricle and the Aorta If the Mitral (or bicuspid) valve is weakened, the blood might seep back into the Left atrium (Mitral Valve Prolapse) but normally it does not. More info can be find on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heart Hope it helps.
