Tricuspid Valve
Explanation
The correct answer is Tricuspid Valve. The tricuspid valve is located between the right atrium and the right ventricle in the heart. It consists of three leaflets or cusps that open and close to regulate the flow of blood from the atrium to the ventricle. When the right atrium contracts, the tricuspid valve opens to allow blood to flow into the right ventricle. When the right ventricle contracts, the valve closes to prevent backflow of blood into the atrium.
17.
17. Is the blood that flows through #16 oxygenated or deoxygenated?
Correct Answer
deoxygenated
Explanation
The blood that flows through #16 is deoxygenated. This means that it has already delivered oxygen to the body's tissues and is returning to the heart and lungs to pick up more oxygen. Deoxygenated blood is typically darker in color because it contains less oxygen and more carbon dioxide.
18.
18. Name the structures (NOT the valve!)
Correct Answer
Chordae Tendineae
Explanation
Chordae tendineae are fibrous cords that connect the papillary muscles to the cusps of the atrioventricular valves in the heart. They play a crucial role in preventing the valves from inverting or prolapsing during ventricular contraction, ensuring the proper flow of blood through the heart.
19.
19. Name the valve.
Correct Answer
Pulmonary Semilunar Valve
Explanation
The valve mentioned in the question is the Pulmonary Semilunar Valve. This valve is located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery. Its main function is to prevent the backflow of blood from the pulmonary artery into the right ventricle. When the right ventricle contracts, the valve opens, allowing blood to flow into the pulmonary artery. When the ventricle relaxes, the valve closes, preventing blood from flowing back into the ventricle. This ensures that blood is directed towards the lungs for oxygenation and prevents it from flowing back into the heart.
20.
