Ch 21 Lec 2 - Heart Flashcards
two atrioventricular valves
bicuspid, tricuspid
we have two ventricles because humans have a blank
high metabolism
tricuspid valve is aka right blank valve
av
tricuspid valve on the blank
right
tricuspid valve opens when blank force is greater and closes when blank force is greater
atrial, ventricular
bicuspid valve is on the blank
left
these hold valves in place and attach to cusps on ventricle side
chordae tendonae
small bundles of muscles that attach to the chordae tendonae
papillary muscles
when valves close, papillary muscles blank
contract and tighten cords
scaffolding on interior walls of ventricles
trabeculae carneae
valves between ventricle and artery
semilunar
valve on the right at the entrance to the pulmonary trunk and opens when right blank contracts
pulmonary, ventricle
valve on the left at entrance to aorta and opens when left blank contracts
aortic, ventricle
right atrium receives blood from blank and blank plus the coronary sinus
superior and inferior vena cava
path of blood
right atrium, right av valve, right ventricle, pulmonary valve, pulmonary trunk, to lungs, left atrium, left av valve, left ventricle, aortic valve, aorta, to tissues
funnel leading from right ventricle to pulmonary trunk
conus arteriosus
receives blood from pulmonary veins
left atrium
supplies the heart tissues with blood and blockage can result in a heart tissue dying
coronary circulation
these branch directly off of the aorta as it emerges
coronary arteries
left coronary artery has these two branches
circumflex, anterior interventricular artery
