The landforms of Earth are generally divided into physiographic regions, consisting of physiographic provinces, which in turn consist of physiographic sections, [1] [2] [3] though some others use different terminology, such as realms, regions and subregions. [4] Some areas have further categorized their respective areas into more detailed ...
The heart is a muscular organ situated in the mediastinum.It consists of four chambers, four valves, two main arteries (the coronary arteries), and the conduction system. The left and right sides of the heart have different functions: the right side receives de-oxygenated blood through the superior and inferior venae cavae and pumps blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery, and the left ...
Fluids, move from regions of high pressure to regions of lower pressure. Accordingly, when the heart chambers are relaxed (diastole), blood will flow into the atria from the higher pressure of the veins. As blood flows into the atria, the pressure will rise, so the blood will initially move passively from the atria into the ventricles.
The heart is the first functional organ to develop and starts to beat and pump blood at about three weeks into embryogenesis. This early start is crucial for subsequent embryonic and prenatal development. The heart derives from splanchnopleuric mesenchyme in the neural plate which forms the cardiogenic region.
The sub-category for this is the Physiographic provinces, which in turn contains its sub-category of the Physiographic sections. Note: Ensure that an appropriate entry exists on the Physiographic regions of the world table before category-tagging any article with one of these three categories.
Anatomy of the human heart; Anterior interventricular sulcus; Aorta; Aortic sac; Aortic valve; Aorticopulmonary septum; Atrial volume receptors; Atrioventricular node; Atrioventricular septum; Atrium (heart)
This category is for the listing of the various physiographic provinces, with a sub-category of physiographic sections. Make sure that an appropriate entry exists on Physiographic regions of the world if tagging an article with one of these three categories.
The nose is referred to as the nasal region. The mouth is referred to as the oral region. The chin is referred to as the mental region. The neck is referred to as the cervical region. The trunk of the body contains, from superior to inferior, the thoracic region encompassing the chest [1] the mammary region encompassing each breast
