-Anterior to the vertebrae, posterior to the sternum and lungs
-Attached to the sternum
-Btw the 3rd and 5th intercostal space
2. The pericardial layersEpicardium, Myocardium, Endocardium
3. Epicardium Thin smooth outside layer

6. The four cardiac valves
, Patho CVS 204 - Exam 1 questions and answers
graded A+ passed
Valves: Atrioventricular - Mitral Valve (Bicuspid)
Tricuspid Valve (Tricuspid)
Semilunar - Pulmonary Valve and Aortic Valve, this valves are made up
of cusps.
7. The four cardiac Two atria receiving chambers: Right and Left atria
cham- bers
Two ventricles pumping chambers: Right and Left ventricles
8. Right side
circulation terms receives deoxygenated blood and pumps that blood into the
lungs to get oxygenated. Pulmonic circulation.
9. Left side
circulation terms receives oxygenated blood from the four pulmonary veins that
pumps blood to entire body. Systemic circulation.
10. Tricuspid valve - Is the right AV valve and located btw the RA and RV, it is larger and
thinner
than the MV.
-The TV is more apically (higher) located than the MV.
-There are three leaflets composed of fibrous tissue covered by
endo- cardium.
-The tricuspid leaflets are not equal in size, and orifice is larger (MV
orifice is smaller)
