  • The cardiac cycle largely splits into three stages: heart diastole, atrial systole and ventricular systole. When the cardiac muscles contract, the chambers push the blood out of it and into another chamber or out of the heart, down the pressure gradient. This involves pushing the valves (at the exit of the chamber) open, while the previous valves (at the entrance of the chamber) would close to prevent the backflow of blood during the chamber contraction.
    In this video, we will explore how the contractions of the heart chambers lead to pressure changes, which then leads to the opening/closing of valves to facilitate efficient blood flow down the pressure gradient.

    Question: you said that we can look at the pressure in the aorta or pulmonary artery and it won’t make a difference but wouldn’t it make a difference as the pressure in the aorta is much higher than in the pulmonary artery? Thanks :)

    • @BioRach
      @BioRach  3 года назад +3

      Yes you're absolutely right! :) What I meant was that the general shape and change in pressure would be similar as the atria/ventricles contract at the same time, essentially making the blood flow the same in both sides of the heart.

  • @nakagpmgvn6687
    @nakagpmgvn6687 3 года назад

    Wow thank you so much! I just had a quick question: at intersection 1 and 3 what is the direction of blood flow because you said to always mention what direction the blood flows in? Thanks

    • @BioRach
      @BioRach  3 года назад +1

      For intersections 1 and 3, they are when the valves close to prevent the backflow of blood - those two points don't really describe the direction of blood flow, but rather how the blood "wants" to flow backwards (eg. from ventricles back to atria in point 1, and aorta back to ventricles in point 3), but it does not happen due to the closing of valves. Hope this clarifies it!

  • @planteater27

    in the textbook, there are subsections such as atrio-ventricular valves, and semi-lunar valves, and there is a lot of detail, is that something separate or is that explained here just more concise???

    • @BioRach
      @BioRach  2 года назад

      The left and right ventricles both contract at the same time during ventricular systole, so there will be oxygenated AND deoxygenated blood coming out of the heart at the same time from both ventricles! Hope that makes sense :)
      And thanks for watching!

    • @BioRach
      @BioRach  2 года назад

      The right ventricle is connected to the pulmonary artery, because arteries always carry blood away from the heart. This makes it the only artery that carries deoxygenated blood.
      Hope this makes sense!
