TRICUSPID VALVE- prevents blood from moving from right ventricle into right atrium during ventricle contraction‚ PULMONARY VALVE- prevents blood from moving from pulmonary trun into right ventricle during ventricular relaxation‚ MITRAL VALVE- prevents blood from moving from left ventricle into right atrium during ventricular relaxation.

------------------------------------------------- Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a primary disease of the myocardium (the muscle of the heart) in which a portion of the myocardium ishypertrophied (thickened) without any obvious cause. It is perhaps best known as a leading cause of sudden cardiac death in young athletes.[7] The occurrence of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a significant cause of sudden unexpected cardiac death in any age group and as a cause of disabling

Chapter 3 Hypothetical Syllogisms As stated in Chapter 2‚ a hypothetical syllogism is a syllogism with at least one conditional premise‚ that is‚ at least one ―if…then…‖ premise. The ―If…then…‖ relationship may be expressed in ordinary language by using a number of different terms. In checking hypothetical syllogisms expressed in ordinary language for their validity‚ it is therefore useful to be able to translate such conditional vocabulary into standard conditional form. The Vocabulary of Conditional

of these defects seem to be centered upon the five main areas around the heart. The atria‚ veins‚ ventricles‚ aorta and the four valves (tricuspid valve‚ pulmonary artery‚ mitral valve and aortic valve.) There are a number of ways that the defects can occur. This can be due to abnormal connections‚ leakage or narrowing in any of the four valves or

special valves in heart 2 are mitral and tricuspid let blood flow from atria to ventricles 2 are aortic and pulmonary control flow as blood leaves the heart It’s great to circulate blood moves around through arteries and veins circulation - movement of blood through heart and body body needs steady supply of blood to work right without circulating blood a person could die Listen to the lub-dub heart makes a lub-dub sound when valves open and close lub = mitral and bicuspid valves close

the heart fills with blood. Systole Phase - the ventricles contract and pump blood to the arteries. Heart Anatomy: Valves Heart valves are flap-like structures that allow blood to flow in one direction. Below are the four valves of the heart: Aortic Valve - prevents the back flow of blood as it is pumped from the left ventricle to the aorta. Mitral Valve - prevents
