cardiovascular system

The essential components of the human cardiovascular system are the heart, blood and blood vessels.

The heart is made of specialized cardiac muscle tissue that allows it to act as a pump within the circulatory system.

the heart

pulmonary vein

pulmonary artery

left atrium

atrioventricular valve

septum

left atrium

right ventricle

posterior vena cava

right atrium

semilunar valve

aorta

arterior valve

right side of the heart is where de-oxygenated blood passes through the heart(right atrium and right ventricle).

The left side of the heart is where the de-oxygenated blood is converted into oxygenated blood and then passed around the body.

Valves:

triscupid valve, it separates the right atrium from the right ventricle

mitral valve: the mitral valve separates the left atrium from the left ventricle
