RE: little bear
Maurice Sendaks Little Bear is an educational Canadian childrens television series starring a Little Bear voiced by Kristin Fairlie. Originally produced by Nelvana for Nickelodeon, it currently airs on Treehouse TV in Canada and Nick Jr. in the United States. It was first shown in the UK on the Childrens BBC, and a part of Toy Box BBC video collection in the late 90s. It was also shown on Nick Jr UK and now airs on Tiny Pop. A direct-to-video/DVD full-length feature film was also created after the series ended. In The Little Bear Movie, Little Bear and his friends help a bear named Cub to help find his parents.
It is based on the Little Bear series of books which were written by Else Holmelund Minarik, and illustrated by Maurice Sendak.
Most of the characters are moderately anthropomorphic animals, exhibiting both animal and human behaviors, but generally dealing with human problems and concerns. However, Little Bears friend, Emily, and her grandmother are human and Tutu, their dog, is mostly a normal pet. Other characters in the series include Little Bear and his parents Mother and Father Bear, his paternal uncle Rusty, his two grandparents, the eponymously named animals Duck, Cat, Owl and Hen, in addition to many recurring characters. -
RE: semilunar valve
A semilunar valve is a type of heart valve that has half-moon like flaps or cusps. It prevents the backflow of blood from the arteries to the ventricles of the heart during diastole. There are two semilunar valves in the heart, the aortic valve and the pulmonary valve. The aortic valve regulates blood flow from the left ventricle to the aorta, and the pulmonary valve controls blood flow from the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery.
