What’s the path of blood flow in pulmonary and systemic circuits?
DEOX BLOOD
body —> cranial vena cava —> right atrium + CONTRACTION —> tricuspid valve —> right ventricle —> pulmonary semilunar valve —> pulmonary trunk —> lungs
OX BLOOD
left/right pulmonary veins —> left atrium + CONTRACTION —> bicuspid valve —> left ventricle —> aortic semilunar valve —> aorta —> body
What’s the purpose of the heart strings (chordae tenodae) and the papillary muscles?
Chordae tenodae: connect muscles to valves to prevent backwards flow of blood
Papillary muscles: make sure the valves don’t open/backwards flow of blood
