Which statements are correct?
The atria are smaller than the ventricles.
Deoxygenated blood is found on the left side of the heart.
The left side of the heart is responsible for systemic circulation.
The left semilunar valve is also known as the mitral valve.
Oxygenated blood:
is bright red in color
is usually found in arteries
can be found on the right and the left side of the heart
passes through the pulmonic semilunar valve
The left AV valve is also known as the
mitral valve
bicuspid valve
tricuspid valve
aortic valve
Pulmonary arteries
take blood to the lungs
take blood away from the lungs
contain oxygenated blood
contain deoxygenated blood
The valves of the heart
open to let blood pass through
close to prevent a backflow of blood
control pulmonary circulation
control systemic circulation
The valves of the heart:
maintain a one way flow of blood through the heart
help to maintain pressure in the heart
receive blood from veins and arteries
are controlled by the somatic nervous system
Deoxygenated blood:
can be found in the right side of the heart
enters the heart through the pulmonary veins
enters the heart through the inferior and superior vena cava
can be found in the left side of the heart
Atrioventricular valves:
control the flow of blood from the ventricles to the atria
control the flow of blood from the ventricles into the blood vessels that carry blood out of the heart
are anchored by the chordae tendineae
are controlled by the papillary muscles
The semilunar valves:
open to allow blood to leave the heart
are anchored by chordae tendineae
are controlled by the papillary muscles
close to allow the ventricles to fill with blood
Identify the correct statements:
The right semilunar valve is also known as the pulmonic valve.
The exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide occurs in the pulmonary arteries.
The septum is composed mainly of cardiac muscle tissue.
When the right ventricles contracts, the aortic semilunar valve opens allowing blood to go into the aorta.
