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.
The higher blood pressure figure, the systolic, is the pressure during contraction of the left ventricle of the heart. The lower figure, the diastolic, is the pressure measured during relaxation of the left ventricle. Blood pressure is controlled by a complex interaction of systems, namely the sympathetic nervous system, and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.
