Pulmonary veins are oxygen rich and deliver it along with nutrients to the body's organs, after the blood has delivered the goods then it is drained back to the heart by the arteries. Then the blood is carried back to the lungs to the alveoli for gas exchange leave carbon dioxide we breathe out and pick up new oxygen and starts over again.
Blood flow goes as follows:
1. left atrium
2. mitral (bicuspid) valve
3. left ventricle
4. aortic semilunar valve
5. aorta
6. brachiocephalic trunk
7. common carotid arteries
8. internal carotid artery
9. anterior and middle cerebral arteries
10. Circle of Willis
11. venous sinuses internal jugular vein
12. right brachiocephalic vein
13. superior vena cava
14. right atrium
15. tricuspid valve
16. right ventricle
17. pulmonary semilunar valve
18. pulmonary trunk
19. pulmonary artery

∙ 9y agoBlood flows from the pulmonary vein to the pulmonary artery by way of the right side of the brain by flowing through the left atrium, mitral valve, left ventricle, and into the aortic semilunar valve. Next, it goes to the aorta, brachiocephalic trunk, carotid arteries, cerebral arteries, Circle of Willis, jugular vein, brachiocephalic vein, superior vena cava, right atrium, tricuspid valve, right ventricle pulmonary semilunar valve, trunk, and artery.

∙ 14y agoFrom the aorta up through either the carotid arteries which supply the greater portion of the brain or the vertebral arteries which supply the poster/inferior portion of the brain.

Is blood flow greater to the brain or to the heart?
are you stupid?? its made in the heart idiot, meaning more blood flow...----actually, the blood flow used by the heart is relatively small, much smaller than the blood flow needed by the brain. Of course, all blood flows through the heart, but that wasn't what the question asked.
What is one result of decreasing blood flow to the heart or brain?
The correct answer is faintness, dizziness.
Do the aortic and pulmonary valves control the flow of the blood into the heart?
No, semilunar valves control the flow of blood out of the heart.
What is the difference between a heart attack and a stroke?
A stroke is a disruption of the blood supply to the brain can cause part of the brain not to function. A heart attack is an interruption of the blood supply to the heart due to for example, blockage of artery leading to the heart. Causes heart cells to die.
The general pathway of blood flow is?
The general blood flow path is from the aorta to the heart. The blood will then leave the heart and flow throughout the rest of the body. This path of blood happens every time the heart beats.

How does blood flow through the brain to the heart?
trace blood flow through the kidney from the renal artery to the renal vein? blood flow through kidney from renal artery to the renal vein
What is peripheral blood flow?
Peripheral blood flow refers to blood flow that occurs in the extremities as opposed to blood that flows to the brain, heart, lungs, and vital organs.
What are the difference between heart attack and a stroke?
Heart attack occurs when blood flow to a part of the heart is blocked by a blood clot. Without oxygenated blood, the heart muscle begins to die.Stroke is a brain attack, cutting off vital blood flow and oxygen to the brain. Stroke happens when a blood vessel feeding the brain gets clogged or bursts.
What is one result for decreasing blood flow to the heart or brain?
Strokes.
What is one result of decreasing blood flow to the heart or brain?
The correct answer is faintness, dizziness.

The correct answer is faintness, dizziness.
Why Blood is pumped by the brain?
Veins running back to your heart from your ear! Jk, the Veins flow thru your neck and the blood is reoxygenated to continue its cycle.
How are strokes and heart atacks similar?
Both involve restriction of blood flow--a stroke is when blood flow to the brain is impeded, and a heart attack is when blood flow to your body is restricted and your heart pumps really frantically because it isn't strong enough to shove the blood through your veins.
Which is the part of the heart that when it contracts it sends blood to the brain?
Blood flow to the brain is collected from the systemic blood circulation. Blood is pumped through the systemic circulatory system by the left side of the heart, specifically the left ventricle.
What influence does the cerebral cortex have on blood flow?
Not much, your brain has little to do with your heart rate
Why is the brain important to the body?
The brain keeps the blood flow (a.k.a the heart) pumping, and that not to mention the other organs that require the brain to keep them go'in.
