Q

chamber and valves

semilunar valves

A

found at the base of 2 large vessels leaving the heart= pulmonary and aortic semilunar valves

17
Q

blood flow

how does the blood flow through the heart

RA, RV, PSV, PT, L+R PA,LU,PV, LA,BMV, LV,ASV, AA

A

1) R. atrium
2) R. AV valve
3) R ventricle
4) pulmonary semilunar valve
5) pulmonary trunk
6) L and R pulmonary artery
7) lungs
8) pulmonary veins
9) L atrium
10) bicuspid valve
11) L ventricle
12) aortic semilunar valve
13) ascending aorta

18
Q

blood flow

step 1

RA + oxygenated or deoxygenated

A

right atrium: recieves deoxygenated blood from 3 vessels
1) superior vena cava
2) inferior vena cava
3) coronary sinus

19
Q

blood flow

superior vena cava

A

blood above the heart

20
Q

blood flow

inferior vena cava

A

blood from below the heart

21
Q

blood flow

coronary sinus

A

blood from heart muscles

22
Q

blood flow

step 2

R AV —> R V

A

blood flows through the right AV valve into the right ventricle

23
Q

what prevents back flow?

A

chordae tendinae and papillary muscles to prevent back flow

24
Q

blood flow

step 3

R V—-> PSV

A

the right ventricle contracts and blood exits through the pulmonary semilunar valve

25
Q

blood flow

step 4

PSV—> PT

A

enters through the pulmonary semilunar vavle to the pulmonary trunk

26
Q

blood flow

step 5

PT—-> L and R PA

A

pulmonary trunk divides into the L and R pulmonary artires

27
Q

blood flow

step 6

L and R PA—> L

A

from the left and rigjt pulmonary artires the blood goes to the lungs

28
Q

blood flow

what happens when the blood gets to the lungs?

oxygenated?

A
  • CO2 is out and O is in
  • deoxygenated blood is traded out
  • oxygenated blood returns to the lungs
29
Q

blood flow

step 7

L —> PV

A

oxygenated blood returns from the lungs through the pulmonary veins

( 4 veins in total; 2 R and 2 L)

30
Q

blood flow

step 8

PV–> LA

A

through the pulmonary veins to thr left atrium

31
Q

blood flow

step 9

BV—> LV

A

then to the bicuspi valve to the left ventricle

32
Q

blood flow

step 10

LV—> ASV

A

L vetricle contracts and blood exits through the aortic semilunar valves

33
Q

blood flow

step 11

ASV—> AA

A

through the aortic semilunar valve and enters the ascending aorta

34
Q

blood flow

step 11

ASV—> AA

A

through the aortic semilunar valve and enters the ascending aorta
