Question
Chapter 13, Problem 41RA
Summary Introduction
To review:
The volume of the blood added to the ventricles due to atrial contraction.
Introduction:
Changes in the pressure within the heart chambers cause the flow of the blood through them. Pressure within the atrial chamber increases during atrial contraction which forces the blood into the ventricle through bicuspid valve in the right ventricle and through tricuspid in the left ventricle.

Name the three vessels that deliver oxygen-poor blood to the right atrium.
What pressure difference between the ventricle and the atrium causes theatrioventricular valve to close?
In dilated cardiomyopathy of the left ventricle, the ventricle can become enormously enlarged. Explain why this might lead to regurgitation of blood through the mitral valve (blood flowing from the ventricle back into the left atrium) during ventricular systole?
