Right Ventricle (ventriculus dexter)."The right ventricle is triangular in form, and extends from the right atrium to near the apex of the heart.
The heart consists of 4 chambers: right atrium, right ventricle, left atrium, left ventricle
Right atrium receives blood from superior and inferior vena cava
Blood flows from right atrium, across tricuspid valve, into right ventricle ...
Starting in the right atrium, the blood flows through the tricuspid valve to the right ventricle. Here it is pumped out the pulmonary semilunar valve and travels through the pulmonary artery to the lungs.
It flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. The term tricuspid refers to the three flaps of tissue that make up the valve.
Contraction of the ventricle then closes the tricuspid valve and forces open the pulmonary valve.
Pseudotriloculare biatriatum a congenital cardiac anomaly in which the heart functions as a three chambered heart because of tricuspid atresia, the right ventricle being extremely small or rudimentary and the right atrium greatly dilated.
It is then pumped to your lungs via the right ventricle. In your lungs, your blood again fills up with oxygen, and returns to your heart. Your blood now enters the left atrium of your heart. It is then pumped out to your body via your left ventricle.
atrioventricular (AV) node Tissue in the right ventricle of the heart that receives the impulse from the atria and transmits it through the ventricles by way of the bundles of His and the Purkinje fibers.
It's made up of several syllables: "sencephaly " means the brain, "prosencephaly" means the "forebrain", and "holoprosencephaly " means that the forebrain didn't separate into a left and a right ventricle, as it does mostly.
pulmonary artery The artery that carries blood from the right ventricle of the vertebrate heart to the lungs. Artery carrying oxygen-poor blood from the heart to the lungs. PICTURE ...
pulmonary circuit The system of blood vessels from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs, transporting deoxygenated blood and returning oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart.
[L. pulmonis, lung]
In birds and mammals, an artery that carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs, where it is oxygenated.
pulmonary vein ...
