Some students are dissecting a sheep's heart.
Before they cut into the heart they decided to examine the structure as a whole and to investigate the action of the valves.
Stage 1: The students ran water in through the vena cava and pulmonary vein.
Stage 2: They squeezed the heart from the bottom so that the water moved out through the aorta and pulmonary artery.
Which of the following correctly describes the position of the valves inside the heart during this process.
|
Stage 1 |
Stage 2 |
A |
Bicuspid valve and aortic valve open |
Bicuspid valve and aortic valve closed |
B |
Pulmonary valve and aortic valve open |
Bicuspid valve and tricuspid valve open |
C |
Bicuspid valve and tricuspid valve closed |
Pulmonary valve and aortic valve open |
D |
Bicuspid valve and tricuspid valve open |
Pulmonary valve and aortic valve open |
