15
Q

is one of the heart’s four valves. It controls blood flow
between the upper left chamber (left atrium) and the lower
left chamber (left ventricle).

Q

also known as the right atrioventricular valve, controls the
flow of blood from the heart’s top chamber (right atrium) to
the bottom chamber (right ventricle).

A

TRICUSPID VALVE

17
Q

form the leaflet suspension system, which ultimately
determines and maintains the position and tension of the
valve leaflets at the end of systole.

A

CHORDAE TENDINEAE

18
Q

located in the ventricles of the heart. They adhere to the
cusps of the atrioventricular valves via the chordae
tendineae and contract to prevent inversion or prolapse of
these valves during systole.

A

PAPILLARY MUSCLE

19
Q

one of four heart valves that oxygenated blood passes
through before leaving the heart. It is also known as the
aortic semilunar because of its semilunar shape. It is located
between the left ventricle and the aorta, preventing oxygenrich blood from returning to the left ventricle.

A

AORTIC SEMILUNAR VALVE

20
Q

The pulmonary heart valve opens, allowing deoxygenated
blood to exit the right ventricle and enter the lungs via the
pulmonary artery.

A

PULMONARY SEMILUNAR VALVE

21
Q

Blood returned to the left side of the heart is pumped out of
the heart into the aorta from which the systemic arteries
branch to supply essentially all body tissues.

A

AORTA

22
Q

The pulmonary trunk splits into the right and left pulmonary
arteries, which carry blood to the lungs, where oxygen is
picked up and carbon dioxide is unloaded.

A

PULMONARY ARTERY

23
Q

Deoxygenated blood from the head, neck, thorax, and upper
limbs is returned to the right atrium

A

SUPERIOR VENA CAVA

24
Q

Deoxygenated blood from the abdomen, pelvis, and lower
limbs is returned to the right atrium

A

INFERIOR VENA CAVA

25
Q

Separates two ventricles from each other.

A

INTERVENTRICULAR SEPTUM

26
Q

is responsible for contraction of the heart
chambers.

A

MYOCARDIUM

27
Q
A
28
Q

blood vessels that transfer freshly oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atria of the heart.

A

pulmonary vein
