A&P - Circulatory System Flashcards
Circuit: Pulmonary
carries blood between the lungs and the heart
Circuit: Systemic
carries blood between the heart and the rest of the body
Right Atrium
receives from systemic
Right Ventricle
pumps into pulmonary
Left Atrium
receives from pulmonary
Left Ventricle
pumps into systemic
Coronary Arteries
supply heart muscle with oxygen
Coronary Sinus
deoxygenated blood from heart muscle is collected in the coronary sinus in the right atrium (main vein)
Atrial Septum
heart muscle that separates the atria
Ventricular Septum
heart muscle that separates the ventricles
Atrioventricular Septum
tissue allowing blood to flow from atria to ventricle
Tricuspid Valve
right atrium and ventricle
Mitral Valve
left atrium and ventricle
Aortic Valve
aorta and left ventricle
Pulmonary Valve
right ventricle and pulmonary trunk
