Cardiac Quiz: Can You Find The Four Heart Valves?
Below you will find a neat animation of blood flowing through the human heart.
As you can see, blood is pumped through the atria into the ventricles and back out to the body and lungs.
Here is your cardiac question of the day, "Can you identify each of the four heart valves shown within this animation?"
Don't struggle. If you need a refresher on heart anatomy, watch this video about the four heart valves and their main function (opening and closing).
Keep on tickin!
