LAYERS OF HEART
Two type of layer
•Covering layer of Heart
•Internal Layer of Heart
Itissurroundedbythepericardium.
•Pericardium-loosefitting,doublelayeredsac
Covering layer of Heart
Pericardial fluid-(Serous fluid)-fluid that is
between the parietal and visceral pericardium which
prevents friction as the heart beats.
Pericardial layer
Layers of heart tissue
•Epicardium
•Myocardium
•Endocardium
Serous membrane
Continuous with
blood vessels
Epicardium
•Protective, outer layer of the heart wall
same as the visceral pericardium
•The coronary blood
vessels that nourish
the heart wall are
located here
Right Atrium
•Thinner wall than ventricles
•Receives deoxygenated blood from vena cava
•Passes blood through tricuspid valve into right
Right Ventricle
•Thicker wall than atria
•Comprises most of anterior surface of heart
•Circulates deoxygenated blood to lungs through
the pulmonic valve into pulmonary trunk
Left Atrium
•Receives freshly oxygenated blood from pulmonary
vein
•Passes blood to left ventricle through mitral valve
Left Ventricle
•Receives blood from left atrium
•Thickest myocardial wall
•Forms apex of heart
•Sends blood to systemic circulation via aorta
6. Heart Valves
Function-
•prevent blood from flowing backwards
Two types of valves in heart
1.Atrioventricular valves (AV)
2.Semi-lunar valves (SL)
1.Atrioventricular Valves
Located between Atrium and
ventricles.
Right AV valve (Tricuspid)
•Located between Right
Atrium and ventricle.
•Contains 3 cusps
Left AV valve (Mitralor
Bicuspid)
•Located between left Atrium
and ventricle.
•Contains 2 cusps
2. Semilunar valves
•Located at exit of ventricles, originate from
endothelial lining of veins
Heart contains two semilunar valves
•Pulmonic valve
•Aortic valve
Internal structure of Heart
The Heart
These are arteries.
They carry blood away
from the heart.
This is a vein. It brings
blood from the body,
except the lungs.
Coronary arteries,
the hearts own
blood supply
The heart has four chambers
2 atria
2 ventricles
now lets look inside the heart

valve
How does the Heart work?
blood from the
body
blood from
the lungs
The heart beat begins when the
heart muscles relaxand blood
flows into the atria.
STEP ONE
The atria then contractand
the valves opento allow blood
into the ventricles.
How does the Heart work?
STEP TWO
How does the Heart work?
The valves closeto stop blood
flowing backwards.
The ventricles contractforcing
the blood to leave the heart.
At the same time, the atria are
relaxingand once again filling with
blood.
The cycle then repeats itself.
STEP THREE
3 Kinds of Circulation:
•Pulmonary circulation
•Coronary circulation
•Systemic circulation
Pulmonary Circulation
Movement of blood from the heart, to the
lungs, and back to the heart again
sln.fi.edu/biosci/systems/ pulmonary.html
Coronary Circulation
Movement of blood through the tissues of
the heart
http://sln.fi.edu/biosci2/systems/
Systemic Circulation
Supplies nourishment to all of the tissue
located throughout the body , except for
the heart and lungs
http://sln.fi.edu/biosci/systems/systemic.html
Hollow tubes that circulate your blood
There are 3 types of blood vessels
a.ARTERY
b.VEIN
c.CAPILLARY
Blood Vessels
The ARTERY
thick muscle and elastic
fibres
Arteries carry blood away from the heart.
the elastic fibres allow the artery
to stretchunder pressure
the thick muscle can contract
to pushthe blood along.
The VEIN
Veins carry blood towards from the heart.
thin muscle and elastic
fibres
veins have valves which act to
stop the blood from going in the
wrong direction.
body muscles surround the veins so that when
they contract to move the body, they also
squeeze the veins and push the blood along the
vessel.
Capillaries
•Food and oxygen released to the body
cells
•Carbon dioxide and other waste products
returned to the bloodstream
The CAPILLARY
Capillaries link Arteries with Veins
the wall of a capillary
is only one cell thick
they exchange materials between
the blood and other body cells.
The exchange of materials between
the blood and the body can only occur
through capillaries.

The CAPILLARY
A collection of capillaries is known as a capillary bed.
