Heart Tour
Storyboard Text
- Next is the Pulmonary vulve
- The pulmonary valve (sometimes referred to as the pulmonic valve) is a valve of the heart that lies between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery and has three cusps. It is one of the four valves of the heart and one of the two semilunar valves, the other being the aortic valve.
- Next Aortic valve and aorta
- The aorta is the major blood vessel that connects your heart to the rest of your body. The aortic valve is where blood leaves the heart. Then it travels through the aorta, making a cane-shaped curve that allows other major arteries to deliver oxygen-rich blood to the brain, muscles and other cells.
- The aortic valve keeps blood flowing through the heart in the right direction. It connects the main pumping chamber of the heart (left ventricle) to the major artery that carries oxygen-rich blood throughout your body (aorta).
- The right ventricle pumps the oxygen-poor blood to the lungs through the pulmonary valve. The left atrium receives oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and pumps it to the left ventricle through the mitral valve. The left ventricle pumps the oxygen-rich blood through the aortic valve out to the rest of the body.
- Now lets go through some terms
- Valves:The valves prevent the backward flow of blood. These valves are actual flaps that are located on each end of the two ventriclesCirculation: The circulatory system's function is to move blood throughout the body. Tissue: Cardiac muscle tissue, or myocardium, is a specialized type of muscle tissue that forms the heart.Bone Marrow: The soft spongey vessel that has many blood vessels annd is found in the center of most bones.
