25
Which ventricle is stronger?
Left Pumps blood to whole body whilst right is only to lungs
26
What does the left atrium take in?
* 4 valve-less pulmonary veins
27
What 2 orifices exist within the left ventricle?
* Left atrioventricular posteriorly * Aortic superiorly
28
What is the role of the atrioventricular valves?
* Seperate atria and ventricles
28
What 2 valves make up the atrioventricular valves?
1. Bicuspid mital valve 2. Tricuspid valve
29
What is the difference between the mitral valve and tricuspid?
Mitral has 2 cusps, tricuspid has 3 cusps
30
What are chordae tendineae and their role?
* Thin fibres from free edge of the cusps * They prevent cusps from turning inside out during contractions
31
What are papilliary muscles?
* Connection to chordae tendineae * provides tension to keep cusps closed during contraction
32
What are the 2 semilunar valves?
* Pulmonary valve * Aortic valve
33
What happens when the atrioventricular valves relax?
* They allow blood to enter
34
What are the 2 main parts of the pericardium?
* Outer fibrous * Inner serous
35
What is the role of pericardial fluid?
* Lubricate heart and remove friction
