Document Summary
Anterior view of the heart (looking at it from the front) Blood enters from the inferior and superior vena cava into the right atrium. Blood passes through the tricuspid valve and then into the right ventricle where it is pumped through the pulmonary artery to the lungs. Everything on the right side of the heart is deoxygenated blood. Blood returns from the lungs through the pulmonary veins (only veins in the body that carry oxygenated blood) Blood drains into the left atrium and goes through the mitral valve into the right ventricle. Blood is ejected into the aorta by passing through the aortic valve. Plane cutting through the level of the fibrous skeleton. Atria have been removed and looking at the ventricles. Anterior is at the top and posterior is at the bottom. Atria and the ventricles that lie below the atria are separated from each other by a connective tissue skeleton (fibrous skeleton)
