Question

Describe the internal morphology of heart?

Answer 1

Large blood vessels leave and enter the heart and help to keep it in position. The internal structure of theheart consists of four hollow spaces, or chambers, divided by a tissue wall, called the cardiac septum. The flow of blood through the heart is regulated by four valves.

Answer 2

1.Internally heart is divided into four parts by septums.

2.Two upper parts are called atria, and the lower ones are called ventricles.

3.The two atria are separated from each by inter-atriolar septum and the right and left ventricles are separated from each other by inter-ventricular septum.

4.The inter-atriolar septum and inter-ventricular septum prevent mixing of deoxygenated blood in the right side of the heart with oxygenated blood in the left side of the heart.

5.The walls Of the ventricles are relatively thicker than atrial walls.

6.The largest artery is the aorta which arises from the left ventricle supplies blood to all the body parts except lungs.

7.Pulmonary artery that arises from the right ventricle carries deoxygenated blood to lungs.

8.The right atrium and right ventricle are connected to each other by right atrioventricular aperture.

9.The left atrium and left ventricle are connected to each other by left atrioventricular aperture.

10.Tricuspid valve guards the right auriculoventricular aperture and mitral valve or bicuspid valve guards the left atrioventricular aperture.
