how are the CUSPS of the TRICUSPID or BICUSPID VALVES CONNECTED to the PAPILLARY MUSCLES to help them shut
by CHORDAE TENDINEAE
38
name of the SPECIALISED TRABECULUM forming a BRIDGE between the INTERVENTRICULAR WALL and the BASE of the ANTERIOR PAPILLARY MUSCLE - RIGHT VENTRICLE
SEPTOMARGINAL TRABECULA
39
in VENTRICULAR CONTRACTION, what causes the ATRIOVENTRICULAR VALVE to SHUT (tricuspid/bicuspid) to PREVENT BACKFLOW from atria, although blood pressure acts against the inverted cusps (upwards)
PAPILLARY MUSCLES CONTRACT CHORDAE TENDINEAE are TENSED - attachment to the chordae tendineae prevents the cusps being everted into the atrium
40
SMALL MUSCULAR POUCH containing MUSCULI PECTINATI on the LEFT ATRIUM is called
LEFT AURICLE
41
BLOOD enters VENTRICLE from ATRI VIA..

2 - Anterior & Posterior for 2 Cusps (Bicuspid valvle)
45
VALVE that PREVENTS BACKFLOW as BLOOD passes out of the LEFT VENTRICLE
AORTIC VALVE - 3 SEMI-LUNAR CUSPS right, left, posterior
46
BACKFLOW of BLOOD in the Aorta CLOSES the AORTIC VALVE and what subsequently happens
