Right atrium
Left ventricle
Right Ventricle
Give the 3 layers of heart
Epicardium
Myocardium
Endocardium
Thin layer of epithelial cells, the inner layer of heart
Endocardium
thin, water membrane in the outer layer of the heart
Epicardium
covers the heart & attached to the pericardium
Epicardium
pumps blood to the arteries by contracting
Myocardium
Lines the valves and interior chambers
Endocardium
Thick layer of cardiac muscles in the middle layer of the heart
Myocardium
Give the Four valves of the Heart
Right AV valve
Left AV valve
Right semilunar valve
Left semilunar valve
Closes as the right ventricles contracts preventing blood from flowing back to the right atrium.
Right AV valve
Closes as the left ventricles contracts preventing blood from flowing back to the left atrium.
Left AV valve
Closes as the left ventricle relaxes preventing blood from flowing back to the left ventricle.
Left semilunar valve
Closes as the right ventricle relaxes preventing blood from flowing back to the right ventricle.
Right semilunar valve
Also called aortic valve
Left semilunar valve
