MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -When the left ventricle contracts, the mitral valve closes and the aortic valve opens. This is so blood flows into the aorta and out to the rest of the body. While the left ventricle is relaxing, the right ventricle also relaxes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Aortic valve: Allows blood to pass from the left ventricle to the aorta; prevents backflow of blood into the left ventricle. 13. Aorta: Distributes blood throughout the body from the heart.

Detailed explanation-3: -Aortic valve: This valve has three leaflets. They open to let blood flow from your heart’s left ventricle to the aorta. The aorta is the largest blood vessel in your body.

Detailed explanation-4: -The mitral valve separates the left atrium and left ventricle. The pulmonary valve separates the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery. The aortic valve separates the left ventricle and aorta.

Detailed explanation-5: -Your aortic valve opens to let blood flow from your left ventricle to your aorta. It closes to prevent blood from flowing in the wrong direction. The closed valve keeps blood from leaking from your aorta back into your heart.
