Q

Transportation of Great Arteries incompatible with life unless:

A

patent ductus arteriosus or foramen ovale or a VSD exists so that oxygenated blood in pulmonary trunk (if ductus arterosus present) can go to aorta and systemic system. foramen ovale or VSD would allow mixture of deoxygenated and oxygenated blood in atrium or ventricles, respectively, to provide some oxygenated blood to systemic system.

Q

Pressure switches in primitive atrium and septum closure

A

Initially, right atrium high pressure keeping flimsy septum primum away from rigid septum secundum due to umbilical vein supply being larger than the pulmonary supply (not needed for fetal lungs). first breath, lungs need oxygenated blood, pressure switch (left more than right) sealing the septum primum to septum secundum becoming the fossa ovalis
