Asker's rating. 1  Fred is correct the smaller the number the bigger the metal. 2  12 gauge is thinner than 7 gauge. 3  The gague refers to the thickness of the metal in question. the issue of strenght is really determines by the type of metal, not necessarily it's thickness.
The left ventricle pumps oxygen-rich blood out of the heart and into an artery called the aorta. From the aorta, blood branches out into a series of ever smaller tube-like vessels: arteries, arterioles and finally capillaries. The capillaries deliver the blood's oxygen and nutrients to cells.
Oxygen- Rich blood then returns to the heart via the Pulmonary Trunk which empty into the left atrium. Once the atrium contracts, the blood passes through the Bicuspid Valve into the Left Ventricle. Once the ventricle contracts blood is forced through the Aortic Valve and out of the Aorta to travel to the blood tissue.
