The heart (cor) is the main organ of __________________ and is situated in a space called the
______________ in between the lungs. The upper part of the heart is the ______________
including the two smaller chambers, _______________ _____________ and _______________
______________. The lower part of the heart is the __________________ that consists of two
larger chambers, the _________________ ______________ and ______________ ______________.
The right and left atria and ventricles are separated longitudinally by a thick wall called the
_______________. The wall between the atria is ______________ ________________ the one
between the ventricles is the _______________ ________________. The heart is surrounded by a
sac called the __________________. The wall of the heart consists of three layers. The inner
membrane of the pericardium covers the heart wall: this is the _____________________ The
middle layer is the heart muscle proper (__________________); and the innermost membrane
lines the chambers and valves (__________________). By contraction or _______________ and
relaxation or _______________, the heart, continuosly pumps blood.
tricuspid valve • pulmones • right and left pulmonary veins • left ventricle • systole
• bicuspid valve • pulmonary valve • superior vena cava • left atrium • inferior vena
cava • right atrium • right ventricle • pulmonary trunk • aortic valve • aorta •
Superior vena cava and ______________ _______________
___________ bring deoxygenated blood into the _________________
_________________ from the whole body and then blood is pumped through
the ________________ _________________ to the _______________
____________. The blood is pumped from right ventricle through the
_______________ _____________ to the _____________
_______________ (pulmonary artery) and to the lungs (____________).
After gas exchange righ and left _______________ ______________
bring oxygenated blood into the _____________ ______________. From
the left atrium blood flows through the ______________ _____________ to
the _____________ ______________. Ventricular ______________
propels oxygenated blood through the _______________
_______________ to the largest artery or aorta which carries blood to all of
the body. The first part of the aorta is ascending aorta, then it continues as
aortic arch then it turns downward as descending aorta.

 The
two main veins entering atrium dextrum are the vena cava
superior et inferior / venae pulmonales dextrae et sinistrae.
 The
innermost layer of the heart wall is
endocardium/myocardium.
 Truncus
pulmonalis carries oxygenated / deoxygenated blood to
the lungs.
 Venae
pulmonales dextrae et sinistrae bring
oxygenated/deoxygenated blood from the lungs.
 The
main artery raising from the left ventricle is the
aorta/truncus pulmonalis.
 The
left atrioventricular valve is also termed as valva
tricuspidalis / mitralis.
