, HUMAN HEART - ONE PAGE HIGH-YIELD NOTES
MAIN FUNCTION
The heart pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs and
oxygenated blood to the body.
BLOOD FLOW
Body -> Vena Cava -> Right Atrium -> Tricuspid Valve -> Right
Ventricle -> Pulmonary Valve -> Pulmonary Artery -> Lungs ->
Pulmonary Veins -> Left Atrium -> Mitral Valve -> Left
Ventricle -> Aortic Valve -> Aorta -> Body
CHAMBERS AND FUNCTIONS :
Right Atrium:
Receives deoxygenated blood from body
Right Ventricle:
Pumps blood to lungs
Left Atrium:
Receives oxygenated blood from lungs
Left Ventricle:
Pumps blood to body
Thickest wall
VALVES AND FUNCTIONS
Tricuspid Valve:
Prevents backflow into right atrium
Pulmonary Valve:
Prevents backflow into right ventricle
Mitral Valve:
Prevents backflow into left atrium
Aortic Valve:
Prevents backflow into left ventricle
, MAJOR BLOOD VESSELS :
Superior Vena Cava:
Returns blood from upper body
Inferior Vena Cava:
Returns blood from lower body
Pulmonary Artery:
Carries deoxygenated blood to lungs
Pulmonary Veins:
Carry oxygenated blood to heart
Aorta:
Carries oxygenated blood to body
OTHER STRUCTURES:
Interventricular Septum:
Separates right and left ventricles
Coronary Arteries:
Supply heart muscle
Apex:
Tip of heart formed by left ventricle
