Best Answer

Blood flow of a sheep's heart is from the right atrium into the right ventricle. Next it goes to the lungs via the pulmonary artery. Lastly, oxygenated blood returns to the left atrium through the pulmonary veins. From the left atrium it goes to the left ventricle and then out to the body via the aorta.
