When atrial pressure is greater than ventricular pressure, the---- valves open.
AV
When ventricular pressure rises above atrial pressure, the blood in the ventricle pushes the----- valves closed.
AV
when the pressure in the --------- is greater than the pressure in the arteries, the semilunar valves are forced open.
ventricles
When ventricular pressure is lower than -------pressure, arterial blood holds the semilunar valves closed.

Name all that occur during ventricular systole.
- The AV valves open to allow blood to enter the ventricles from the atria.
- The semilunar valves remain closed throughout systole to prevent backflow of blood into the ventricles.
- The semilunar valves open to allow blood to flow into the large arteries.
- The AV valves close to prevent backflow of blood into the atria.
