For left ventricle it varies from zero to Something above systolic pressure (say 130 mm Hg for a "normal" average).
Left Atrium goes from zero or below (say - 5 Torr) to 5 or 10 above.

Where is the blood that enters the left ventricle coming from?
the left atrium
What does the left atrium carry?
The left atrium carries oxygenated blood.
Does the atrium have depxgyenated blood?
well you have two atria the right atrium and left atrium but i think the right atrium has deoxygenated blood and the left atrium has oxygenated blood.
What is the circuit called from the time a drop of blood is dropped in the right atrium to the time its dropped in the left atrium?
The vascular circuit that connects the right atrium to the left atrium is the pulmonary circulation.
What kind of gas does the left atrium carry?
The atrium does not carry gas. Blood flows through it. The blood in the left atrium is oxygenated.
Where would pressure be caused by stenosis of the mitral valve?
There will be higher pressure in the left atrium, when there is mitral stenosis. There will dilatation of the left atrium as well as there will hypertrophy of the left atrium. There will raise in the pulmonary veins. This will lead to pulmonary edema. This will eventually lead to high pressure in pulmonary arteries. That is called as pulmonary hypertension. The pressure in right ventricle will increase. Then the pressure in the right atrium will increase. Then the pressure in the systemic venous side will increase. This will lead to right sided heart failure.
What has the highest blood pressure a right ventricle b right atrium c left ventricle d left atrium?
C Left Ventricle
Is the pressure in the left atrium higher than right?
Yes, the pressure in the left atrium should be much higher than the pressure on the right side. The left atrium has to push blood into the left ventricle, which is much tougher and more muscular because it has to push blood throughout the entire body. The right atrium only has to fill the right ventricle, which is only pushing blood through the lungs.
When blood enters the left atrium its muscular walls are?
strong then the right atrium but not as strong as the left ventricle because the left atrium deals with a higher pressure in comparison to the right atrium. The walls of the posterior left atrium are smooth, this part receives the 4 pulmonary veins The wall of the anterior left atrium contain musculi pectinati, small ridges in the wall Unlike in the right atrium there is no definitive division between the two
What does an elevated pulmonary wedge pressure indicate?
an elevated pulmonary wedge pressure indicate that the pressure in the left atrium is evevated .
How does the size of the right atrium compare to the left atrium?
the size of the right atrium is smaller that the left atrium.
Which heart chamber has the lowest pressure?
Blood pressure has nothing to do with the chambers of the heart. Blood pressure has to do with the arteries, veins and capillaries.
Where does the left atrium lead to?
The left atrium empties into the left ventricle. The left atrium and left ventricle are separated by the left AV valve, or mitral valve.
What are the 4 chambers of the heart?
Right Atrium , Left Atrium , Right Ventricle , Left Ventricle
Where is the blood that enters the left ventricle coming from?
the left atrium
What chamber of the heart do the pulmonary veins enter?
the left atrium...it pumps blood thereThe pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart.
The upper chambers of the heart are?
The two upper chambers are called the atria. A single atria is an atrium.
