You disappeared when I asked you a question earlier in the 2nd thread... Yeah, you're right!

renorenal SG

The valve in the middle of the heart... nope... it's not an interventricular valve... no such valve...

There are four valves, aortic, mitral, tricuspid and pulmonic, these are located in either the right or the left side of the heart, I wanna know the name of the one right in the middle of the wall... more prominent in infants... Mr. Green

renorenal SG

Stomach... that's right... now name that structure in the stomach... Wink

renorenal SG

Definitely not the bladder... Wink

ndmmxiaomayi SG

Heart muscles lor

The other two valves are aortic and pulmonic valves.

renorenal SG

Read above post for hisoka by me for more information Wink

renorenal SG

See? Laughing

ndmmxiaomayi SG

Do you mean the semilunar valves near the aortic arch?

renorenal SG

Does it look like it's in the aortic arch to you? Noperz! Mr. Green Wink Try again!

The semilunar valves are called the aortic valves and that brings you to ground zero again in naming the four common valves of the heart... which is not what I'm looking for in the first place... Razz

ndmmxiaomayi SG

I guess guess....

Fundus because

Fundus dome-shaped and projected upwards and to the left of the cardiac orifice. It reaches the level of 5th intercostals space, and may be dilated with a combination of gas, fluid and food. The cardiac notch is between the oesophagus and fundus2. The oesophagus enters the stomach at the cardiac orifice. Only a physiologic sphincter is present at the cardiac orifice.

Great try! But noperz... this structure has a lot of ridges (depressions and elevations)...

renorenal SG

A node is not a valve, it's a nerve fiber to allow conduction of electricity generated by the sinoatrial node (SAN) for the contraction of the heart as whole...

renorenal SG

Time for lunch now... remember, there's still somemore in page 17... I'd say they are relatively easier than what you guys are attempting on now... Wink

I am yellowish
Or should I say brownish
In normal conditions
I should not be too hard
Or too soft
But it depends on what you
Put into your mouth
When distressed
I am like the tap water
I stink extremely bad
But it also again depends
On what you put into your mouth

What am I? Rolling Eyes [/b]

Plaque?

Normally clear and transparent
Under microbes invasion
I'd turn turbid and heavily concentrated
Causes headache when I'm raised
Can be deadly when removed at a quick rate
I maintain the shape of the head
I circulate not in the blood vessels
But somewhere else
I can come out from the nose
And not forgetting the ears too

What am I? Laughing [/b]

Mucus?

ndmmxiaomayi SG

Sometimes green
Sometimes bloody
Sometimes yellowish
Sometimes just plain whitish
Often sticky
Sometimes stinky
I am part of your defense
That prevents you from
Getting worse problems...

What am I? Laughing [/b]

Phlegm?

renorenal SG

I'm sorry, but that's not the answer... Try again! Mr. Green

ndmmxiaomayi SG

Think very long still wrong........

Sad

renorenal SG

Think quality next time lor Laughing

Well, at least you didn't get all wrong, you got one right, and another one right earlier, so that makes 2 out of the potential 7 Mr. Green
