Blood vessels delivering blood to right and left atria

Right atrium: superior and inferior vena cava and coronary sinus


Left atrium: blood from lungs via four pulmonary veins

Venticles: thickness and function

Left ventricle thicker, pumps blood to systemic circuit (higher pressure, higher resistance)


Right ventricle thinner, pumps blood ton pulmonary circuit (shorter distance, less resistance, less pressure)

Gut to liver blood flow

Oxygenated blood to gut, picks up nutrition, goes via Hepatic portal vein to liver as deoxygenated blood.

Blood pressure in chambers

RA: 5mmHg


LA: 8mmHg


RV: 27mmHg


LA: 120mmHg

Interventricukar sulcus

Separates the ventricles on the exterior surface (anterior and posterior)

Blood volume across body circuits

Pulmonary: 9%


Heart: 7%


Systemic: 84%


Total -> 5L


Output 1 pump: 5L/min (at rest)

Ventricular pump: Filling phase

Walls of ventricles expanding, volume of blood increasing. Outlet valve by artery stops blood going backwards into ventricles.


Inverse relationship b/w blood volume and wall expansion

Ventricular pump: ejection phase

Walls contract, blood volume decrease. Inlet valve prevents valve movie back into veins

Ejection from right ventricle

Blood goes to pulmonary trunk then out right and left pulmonary arteries

Ejection from left ventricle

Into aortic valve to aorta and systemic arteries
