Ligaments: is a tough material that connects bones together at the joints. Cartilage: is a smooth tough material that protects the end of the bones. It protects the end of t â¦ he bones. Tendons: is a rubber-like cords. it's function is it stretch as the muscles and the bones move.
Yes, the pressure generated (under normal anatomic conditions, mind you) is higher in the left ventricle than the right. This is due to the higher systemic pressures being pumped against by the left ventricle, compared to the relatively low pulmonary vascular pressures opposing the right ventricular output.
Ventricular diastole is when the ventricles are relaxing, while atrial diastole is when the atria are relaxing. Together they are known as complete cardiac diastole. During ventricular diastole, the pressure in the (left and right) ventricles drops from the peak that it reaches in systole. When the pressure in the left ventricle drops to below the pressure in the left atrium, the mitral valve opens, and the left ventricle fills with blood that was accumulating in the left atrium.
