Q

How doe the atrioventricular valves function?

A

OPEN:
1. Blood returning to the heart fills atria, putting pressure against AV valves; forced open
2. As ventricles fill, AV valve flaps hang limply into ventricles
3. Atria contract, forcing additional blood into ventricles
CLOSE:
1. Ventricles contract forcing blood against AV valve cusps
2. AV valves close
3. Papillary muscles contract and chordae tendineae tighten, preventing valve flaps from everting into atria

Q

How do the Aortic and semi-lunar valves function?

A
  1. As ventricle contract and intraventricular pressure rises, blood is pushes up against semilunar valves, forcing them open.
  2. As ventricles relax and intraventricular pressure falls, blood flows back from arteries, filling the cusps of semilunar valves and forcing them to close

A

Hepatic veins that merge with the inferior vena cava

79
Q

Why is the hepatic portal system needed?
