Fluid filled sac that surrounds the heart that reduces friction and lubricates
Fibrous layer: layer surrounds heart
Parietal pericardium: outer layer of pericardium
Visceral pericardium: layer closest to organ
đź’ˇGood way to remember: viscera = internal organs, so visceral pericardium is closest to the heart
Pericardial cavity: filled with serous fluid
Located on the right side of the heart
Typically the thinner version, if its hard to tell
Blood comes in from caudal/cranial vena cava to right atrium, down through valve to ventricles, then out through pulmonary artery
Thicker section of the heart
Blood comes in from pulmonary vein into left atrium, through the valve to ventricle then out the aorta
đź’ˇHow to remember the left side: apex will point towards the left
Valve located in between right atrium and ventricle
Has three flaps to the valve
Will open to allow blood to flow through
đź’ˇHow to remember: tricuspid is a long word, right is also a longer word, so tricuspid corresponds with right

Two flaps for the valve
Will open to allow blood to flow through
đź’ˇHow to remember: bicuspid is a shorter word, left is also shorter, so bicuspid corresponds with left

Enters into the right atrium
Valves that resemble a crescent moon in shape/appearance
Valve that connects the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery to bring deoxygenated blood to the lungs
Valve in that will be connect to the aorta from the left ventricle to bring oxygenated blood to the rest of the body
Here's a better picture of semilunar valves!
(Image from lecture 21)
Septum:
Band of muscle separating left and right sides of heart
Apex:
Point of the heart
Can determine left or right side(apex always points left)
Papillary muscles:
Indentations in the heart that will anchor the chordae tendinae and pull valves open
Chordae tendinae:
Strands that will connect to the valves and aid in pulling them open
Prevents blood from flowing backwards
In fetal calves: a few modifications are made
Foramen Ovale: opening between the right and left atrium which will allow blood to go straight to the blood vessels
Umbilical vein: Brings oxygenated and nutrient rich blood from placenta to the fetal calf liver
Umbilical arteries: There's two of theses, carries oxygen poor blood away from fetus to placenta
Ductus arteriosus: bypasses pulmonary artery to go into umbilical arteries
Ductus venosus: bypasses the hepatic sinusoids
All of this will regress and close in adult circulation
Ligamentum Arteriosum: remnants of the ductus arteriosus
Foramen ovale closes
Round ligament of the liver: remnant of umbilical vein
Round ligaments of the bladder: remnant of umbilical artery
Aortic and pulmonary valves
Right atrium
Ligamentum arteriosum
Oxygenated
