What artery carries de-oxygenated blood?

The pulmonary artery

The only artery which doesn't carry oxygenated blood and goes to the lungs

What vein carries oxygenated blood

Pulmonary vein

Capillaries?

One cell thick, connect arteries and veins together, diffusion happens here

Double circulation meaning

Blood enters heart twice per cycle

All mammals

Single circulation meaning

Blood enters the heart once per cycle

Fish

Closed circulatory system meaning

There are blood vessels

Vertebrates

Order of circulatory system?

Vena cava, right atrium, tricuspid valve, R.ventricle, semi-lunar valve, pulmonary artery, lungs, pulmonary vein, left atrium, bicuspid valve, L.ventricle, aortic valve, aorta, body.

Why is the left ventricle thicker than the right ventricle?

Because oxygenated blood needs to be pumped further

Why is the left ventricle thicker than the right ventricle?

Because oxygenated blood needs to be pumped further

First step of blood

Deoxygenated blood leaves the left ventricle via the aorta

Why is the left ventricle thicker than the right ventricle?

Because oxygenated blood needs to be pumped further

First step of blood

Deoxygenated blood leaves the left ventricle via the aorta

Second step of blood flow through the heart

The tricuspid valve opens allowed deoxygenated blood flow from the right atrium into the right ventricle

Why is the left ventricle thicker than the right ventricle?

Because oxygenated blood needs to be pumped further

First step of blood

Deoxygenated blood leaves the left ventricle via the aorta

Second step of blood flow through the heart

The tricuspid valve opens allowed deoxygenated blood flow from the right atrium into the right ventricle

Step 3 of the blood flow through the heart

When the right ventricle is full, the tricuspid valve shuts preventing the back flow of blood into the right atrium

Why is the left ventricle thicker than the right ventricle?

Because oxygenated blood needs to be pumped further

First step of blood

Deoxygenated blood leaves the left ventricle via the aorta

Step 4 of blood flow

Deoxygenated blood leaves the right ventricle via the pulmonary artery

Step 5 of blood flow

Deoxygenated blood is circulated to the lungs via the pulmonary artery

The biscuspid valve opens allowing oxygenated blood flow from the left atrium into the left ventricle

Step 7 of blood flow

The biscuspid valve opens allowing oxygenated blood flow from the left atrium into the left ventricle

Step 8 of blood flow

When the left ventricle is full, the biscuspid valve shuts preventing the back flow of blood into the left atrium

Step 7 of blood flow

The biscuspid valve opens allowing oxygenated blood flow from the left atrium into the left ventricle

Step 8 of blood flow

When the left ventricle is full, the biscuspid valve shuts preventing the back flow of blood into the left atrium

Step 9 of blood flow

Oxygenated blood leaves the left ventricle via the aorta

Step 7 of blood flow

The biscuspid valve opens allowing oxygenated blood flow from the left atrium into the left ventricle

When the left ventricle is full, the biscuspid valve shuts preventing the back flow of blood into the left atrium

Step 9 of blood flow

Oxygenated blood leaves the left ventricle via the aorta

Step 10 of blood flow

Blood is circulated to the body out of the heart via the aorta
