      • ATRIAL SYSTOLE

        • 2. Tricuspid + bicuspid valves OPEN, as atria CONTRACTS
        • 3. Blood flows into the ventricles
      • VENTRICULAR SYSTOLE
        • 1.Atria Relax
        • 2. R + L ventricles contract ---->
          • Blood forced out of heart, into pulmonary artery and aorta
            • Semi-lunar valves are open
        • 3. Valves close
        • 4. Pulmonary artery - DEOXYGENATED blood to LUNGS
          • Aorta- OXYGENATED blood to BODY
      • DIASTOLE
        • 1. Ventricles relax
