Question | Answer |
---|---|
Sinus Venosus (SV) | It transfers de-oxygenated blood from the SVC and the ICV to the right atrium. |
Superior Vena Cava and Inferior Vena Cava | SVC - Delivers de-oxygenated blood from tissues above the heart IVC - Delivers de-oxygenated blood from tissues below the heart |
Right Atrium | The upper chamber of the heart on the right side. |
Right Atrio Ventricular Valve (Tricuspin) | Function is so de-oxygenated blood does not flow back from the right ventricle to the right atrium. |
Right Ventricle | The lower chamber of the heart on the right side. |
Pulmonary Valve | Function is so de-oxygenated blood does not flow back from the pulmonary artery to the right ventricle. |
Pulmonary Vein | It transfers oxygenated blood into the left atrium. |
Left Atrium | The upper chamber of the heart on the left side. |
Left Atrio Ventricular Valve (Bicuspid) | Function is so oxygenated blood does not flow back from the left ventricle to the left atrium. |
Left Ventricle | The lower chamber of the heart on the left side. |
Aortic Valve | Function is so oxygenated blood does not flow back from the aorta to the left ventricle. |
Aorta | It is an artery and it carries blood away from the heart. |
System of Coronary Arteries | It delivers oxygenated blood from the aorta to the ventricular muscle. |
Blood Vessel | Made up of the aorta, arteries, capillaries, a vein and leads to the Vena Cavas. |
Septum | Muscular wall to separate LV from RV so de-oxygenated blood and oxygenated blood won't get mixed. |
