By two superior vense cavse, and by the inferior venacava, the venous blood collected from the body enters theright auricle. Thence the blood passes into the rightventricle through a crescentic opening, bordered by athreefold (tricuspid) membranous valve (worked by chordaetendinese attached to papillary muscles projecting from thewall of the ventricle).. VASCULAR SYSTEM, 71Z The right ventricle is not so muscular as the left,which it partly surrounds. By its contraction the bloodis driven into the pulmonary trunk, whose orifice isguarded by three semilunar valves. During contractionthe tricuspid valves are pressed together, so that noregurgitation into the right auricle can take place. The pulmonary trunkdivides into two pulmonaryarteries, which branch , intocapillaries on the walls of thelungs. There the red bloodcorpuscles gain oxygen, andthe blood is freed from much Fig. 391.—Circulatory system ofthe rabbit.
