|
Mitral Valve
|
|
Mitral Valve closes during _____ and Opens during _____ in response to changes in pressure between the left atrium and ventricle
|
Systole
Diastole |
|
At the end of systole when ventricular contraction is complete the pressure in the left ventricle is ______
|
0-5 mmhg
|
|
The pressure in the left atria is higher 10-12 mmhg because it is _______ in systole
|
filling
|
|

|
Mitral Valve
|
|
