I'm trying to find a list of how blood moves through the heart containing these 12
bicuspid valve
pulmonary semilunar valve
right atrium
left ventricle
aortic semilunar valve
superior vena cava
right ventricle
tricuspid valve
left atrium
pulmonary arteries
pulmonary veins
aorta
and pulmonary trunk


please help if you can... this information is very hard to find

Trace the blood through the heart:

right atrium down to right ventricle

to lungs

back to left atrium, down to left ventricle

out to the rest of the body


Now add in the proper arteries, veins, and valves. Use your textbook diagrams to find the correct ones.

You can remember which side of the heart does what: First blood goes RIGHT to the lungs, then all that's LEFT is the rest of the body.

Blood is returned from the body via the Superior and Inferior Vena Cava, the superior returning the blood from above the heart (head and both arms) and the inferior from below the heart (the abdomen, and both legs). It, first, is returned to the Right Atrium. It passes through the Tricuspid Valve into the Right Ventricle (RV). The RV pumps the blood up through the Pulmonary Semilunar Valve, out the Pulmonary Trunk and to the Pulmonary Artery. The blood is then oxygenated by the pulmonary vasculature and returns to the heart via the Pulmonary Vein. The blood then flows though the Bicuspid Valve and into the Left Ventricle (LV). The LV pumps the blood past the aortic semilunar valve and out the Aorta.

Hope this helps!

The blood flows from both the inferior and superior vena cava into the right atrium. It then passes through the tricupid valve into the right ventricle. It is then pumped out through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary trunk and pulmonary arteries out to the lungs. it returns from the lung by way of the pulmonary veins and into the left atrium. Then it flows through the bicuspid (Mitral) valve into the left ventricle. From there it is pumped out the aortic semilunar valve int the aorta.

well, search for the picture of the heart, it will be much easier, it will go in through the superior vena cava, then to the right atrium, passing through the bicuspid valve then into the left ventricle, then through the aortic semi lunar valve in the pulmanory trunk, then into the lungs through the pulmonary arteries and into the heart again through the pulmonary veins while passing through the pulmonary semilunar valve then to the left atrium, then through the tricuspid valve through the left ventircle then out of the heart through the aorta.

the midsection however the technique is assisted via the potential of valves in the veins, capillaries and arteries. Your heart might beat yet once you have heart disease or blockages the bypass might nicely be made puzzling. the midsection of direction won't be able to pump without electric powered impulses that make the midsection muscle mass contract and relax to bypass the blood. One necessary ingredient is the innovations having finished administration over each physique function.
