Flowchart Of Blood Through The Heart
Beginning with the superior and inferior vena cavae and the coronary sinus the flowchart below summarizes the flow of blood through the heart including all arteries veins and valves that are passed along the way.
Flowchart of blood through the heart. Blood flow sequence activity the purpose of this activity is to understand the sequence of blood flow through the heart lungs and body. From the aorta the blood travels to various parts of the body carrying oxygen and nutrients. The human heart has four chambers. Then the left ventricle pumps the blood into the aorta through systemic circulation.
Blood throught the heart. The svc collects blood from the upper half of the body. The blood first enters the right atrium. Capillaries are small blood vessels that connect the arteries and veins.
It then flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. The pattern described below is repeated over and over causing blood to flow continuously to the heart. The right and left sides of the heart work together. V veins toward blood is moving toward the heart.
Two ventricles each of which is a muscular chamber that squeezes blood out of the heart and into the blood vessels and two atria each of which is a muscular chamber that drains and then squeezes blood into the ventricles. The superior vena cava svc and the inferior vena cava ivc see figure 3. When the heart beats the ventricle pushes blood through the pulmonic valve into the pulmonic artery. The two atria reside at the top of the heart.
Blood enters the heart through two large veins the inferior and superior vena cava emptying oxygen poor blood from the body into the right atrium of the heart. As the atrium contracts blood flows from your right atrium into your right ventricle through the open tricuspid valve. The ivc collects blood from the lower half of the body. All blood enters the right side of the heart through two veins.
The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood through the superior and inferior vena cavas from the body and pumps it to the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve which opens to allow the blood flow through and closes to prevent blood backing up the atrium. How does blood flow through the heart. The two ventricles are at the bottom. A arteries away blood is moving away from the heart.
Right side of the heart. Superior and inferior vena cavae and the coronary sinus. And the cycle of blood flow through the heart continues. Blood flow through the heart.
