turn divided into chambers. The upper two chambers of the heart are called atria and the lower two chambers are calledventricles. The atria receive blood returning to the heart from the body and the ventricles pump blood from the heart to the body. Valves allow blood to flow in one direction between the chambers of the heart. The Heart Wall The heart is composed of cardiac muscle which enable the heart to contract and allow the synchronization of the heart beat. The heart wall is divided into three

Introduction Endocarditis is an infection of the inner layer of the heart (endocardium) or an infection of the heart valves. Endocarditis can cause growths inside the heart or on the heart valves. Over time these growths can destroy heart tissue and cause heart failure or problems with heart rhythm. They can also cause stroke if they break away and form a blood clot in the brain. Early treatment offers the best chance for curing endocarditis and preventing complications. What are the causes? This

designs have largely been superseded for audio power amplifiers‚ though some audiophiles believe that Class A gives the best sound quality‚ due to it being operated in as linear a manner as possible. In addition‚ some aficionados prefer thermionic valve (or "tube") designs over transistors‚ for a number of reasons: Tubes are more commonly used in class A designs‚ which have an asymmetrical transfer function. This means that distortion of a sine wave creates both odd- and even-numbered harmonics. They

From there it going into the tricuspid valve and goes into the right ventricle which travels to the pulmonic valve and then into the pulmonary artery. After it leaves the pulmonary artery it travels to the pulmonary veins and then becomes oxygenated. Once

The heart is a hollow muscular organ that pumps blood throughout the blood vessels to various parts of the body by repeated‚ rhythmic contractions. It is found in all animals with a circulatory system‚ which includes the vertebrates. The adjective cardiac means "related to the heart" and comes from the Greek καρδιά‚ kardia‚ for "heart". Cardiology is the medical speciality that deals with cardiac diseases and abnormalities. The vertebrate heart is principally composed of cardiac muscle and connective

Lorson Manufacturing Company is actively seeking to implement tighter cost control measures in an industry that is largely governed by prices. The purpose of this report is to present and analyse a new costing system proposed by Mr. Jan Lorson for the valve department of the company‚ and compare it to the existing system‚ in order to judge whether to go forward with its implementation. The analysis uses a number of examples to highlight the significant differences in costs between the two systems‚ and

heart: • blood drains into the right atrium through the superior vena cava‚ inferior vena cava‚ and the coronary sinus (drains the heart muscle itself)→Right Ventricle→pulmonary semilunar valves→lungs→pulmonary veins→left atrium→bicuspid valve→left ventricle→aortic semilunar valve→systemic circuit. What the valves do: • Prevent backflow into the atria and ventricles‚ ensuring that blood only flows one way through the heart. what vessels bring blood to the heart and take blood away‚ etc... Veins
