Valve/Vessel
Function
tricuspid valve (between right atrium and right ventricle)   prevents blood from moving from right ventricle back into right atrium during ventricular contraction  
🗑
pulmonary semilunar valve (between right ventricle and pulmonary artery during ventricular relation)   prevents blood from moving back from pulmonary artery into right ventricle  
🗑
bicuspid (mitral) valve (between left atrium and left ventricle)   prevents blood from moving from left ventricle during ventricular contraction  
🗑
aortic semilunar valve (between left ventricle and aorta)   prevents blood from moving back from aorta into the left ventricle during ventricular relaxation  
🗑
artery   carries high-pressure blood from heart to arterioles  
🗑
arteriole   connects artery to capillary; helps to control blood flow into capillary by underdoing vasoconstriction or vasodilation  
🗑
capillary   provides semipermeable membrane through which nutrients, gases, and wastes are exchanged between blood and tissues cells; connects arteriole to venule  
🗑
venule   connects capillary to vein  
🗑
vein   carries low-pressure blood from venule to heart; valves prevent backflow of blood; serves as blood reservoir  
🗑
