Aorta
main artery of the body, supplying oxygenated blood to the circulatory system
responsible for distributing
one of the largest blood vessels that transports blood from the body region below the diaphragm to the heart
chamber in the heart that receives oxygenated blood from the lungs
AV node
main artery of the body, supplying oxygenated blood to the circulatory system
responsible for distributing
one of the largest blood vessels that transports blood from the body region below the diaphragm to the heart
chamber in the heart that receives oxygenated blood from the lungs
Inferior Vena Cava
main artery of the body, supplying oxygenated blood to the circulatory system
responsible for distributing
one of the largest blood vessels that transports blood from the body region below the diaphragm to the heart
chamber in the heart that receives oxygenated blood from the lungs
Left Atrium
main artery of the body, supplying oxygenated blood to the circulatory system
responsible for distributing
one of the largest blood vessels that transports blood from the body region below the diaphragm to the heart
chamber in the heart that receives oxygenated blood from the lungs
Left Ventricle
when blood leaves this chamber of the heart, it heads out to the body
the point the blood vessel splits in two and sends oxygen-poor blood to the lungs.
blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood from your lungs to your heart
chamber in the heart that contracts and pushes blood through the tricuspid valve
Pulmonary Trunk
when blood leaves this chamber of the heart, it heads out to the body
the point the blood vessel splits in two and sends oxygen-poor blood to the lungs.
blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood from your lungs to your heart
chamber in the heart that contracts and pushes blood through the tricuspid valve
Pulmonary Veins
when blood leaves this chamber of the heart, it heads out to the body
the point the blood vessel splits in two and sends oxygen-poor blood to the lungs.
blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood from your lungs to your heart
chamber in the heart that contracts and pushes blood through the tricuspid valve
Right Atrium
when blood leaves this chamber of the heart, it heads out to the body
the point the blood vessel splits in two and sends oxygen-poor blood to the lungs.
blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood from your lungs to your heart
chamber in the heart that contracts and pushes blood through the tricuspid valve
Right Ventricle
when blood leaves this chamber of the heart, it heads to the lungs
initiates the action potential that causes the heart to beat
stops blood from flowing back into the ventricles each time they contract
prevents blood from flowing back into the atria when the ventricles contract
SA Node
when blood leaves this chamber of the heart, it heads to the lungs
initiates the action potential that causes the heart to beat
stops blood from flowing back into the ventricles each time they contract
prevents blood from flowing back into the atria when the ventricles contract
Semilunar Valves
when blood leaves this chamber of the heart, it heads to the lungs
initiates the action potential that causes the heart to beat
stops blood from flowing back into the ventricles each time they contract
prevents blood from flowing back into the atria when the ventricles contract
Tricuspid and Bicuspid Valves
when blood leaves this chamber of the heart, it heads to the lungs
initiates the action potential that causes the heart to beat
stops blood from flowing back into the ventricles each time they contract
prevents blood from flowing back into the atria when the ventricles contract
