Here’s how they function within the heartbeat cycle: Arteries Function: Carry oxygenated blood away from the heart (except for pulmonary arteries, which carry deoxygenated blood to the lungs). Structure: Thick, elastic walls that can withstand high pressure from the heart's contractions. Role in Heartb

💓 Exploring the Inside of the Left Ventricle 💓 Take a journey inside the heart with our animation, where a camera travels through the left ventricle, revealing the intricate anatomy of: Mitral Valve: Regulates blood flow from the left atrium into the left ventricle, ensuring efficient filling during diastole. Aortic Valve: Opens to pump oxygenated blood into the aorta during systole, sending it to the rest of the body. This dynamic view showcases how the heart’s structures work in harmony to m
