◉ "Which heart chamber receives blood from the SVC and IVC?".
Answer: "Right atrium."
◉ "Which valve lies between the right atrium and right ventricle?".
Answer: "Tricuspid valve."
◉ "Which chamber pumps blood from the right side of the heart to
the lungs?".
Answer: "Right ventricle."
◉ "Which valve opens to send blood from the right ventricle into the
pulmonary trunk?".
Answer: "Pulmonary (semilunar) valve."
,◉ "What is the large vessel leaving the right ventricle before it splits
to each lung?".
Answer: "Pulmonary trunk."
◉ "Which vessels carry blood away from the heart to the lungs?".
Answer: "Right and left pulmonary arteries."
◉ "Where does gas exchange occur in the pulmonary circulation?".
Answer: "Lungs."
◉ "Which vessels return oxygenated blood from the lungs to the
heart?".
Answer: "Pulmonary veins."
◉ "Which chamber receives oxygenated blood from the pulmonary
veins?".
Answer: "Left atrium."
◉ "What is another name for the bicuspid valve?".
Answer: "Mitral valve."
◉ "Which valve lies between the left atrium and left ventricle?".
,Answer: "Mitral (bicuspid) valve."
◉ "Which chamber pumps oxygenated blood to the body?".
Answer: "Left ventricle."

Answer: "Aortic arch."
◉ "List the blood flow through the heart starting at the vena cavae.".
Answer: "SVC/IVC → RA → tricuspid → RV → pulmonary valve →
pulmonary trunk → pulmonary arteries → lungs → pulmonary veins
→ LA → mitral → LV → aortic valve → aorta."
◉ "During ventricular diastole.
Answer: are the AV valves open or closed?","Open."
, ◉ "During ventricular systole.
Answer: are the AV valves open or closed?","Closed."
◉ "What causes the AV valves to close during ventricular
contraction?".
Answer: "Rising ventricular pressure pushes the valves shut to
prevent backflow."
◉ "When do semilunar valves (pulmonary and aortic) open?".
Answer: "During ventricular systole."
◉ "Which valve prevents backflow into the left ventricle after
ejection?".
Answer: "Aortic valve."
◉ "Which type of vessel carries blood away from the heart?".
Answer: "Arteries."

Answer: which vessels carry deoxygenated blood?","Pulmonary
arteries."
