What does ventricle mean?
A concave/cavernous area of an organ is a ventricle. Like the hollow compartments in the heart.
Which side of the heart pumps fresh oxygenated blood through the lungs?
The right side of the heart: including the right atrium which tops off the right ventricle when it contracts and the right ventricle which pumps blood low in oxygen to the lungs. Pulmonary arteries carry that blood to the lungs. Pulmonary veins bring blood high in oxygen back to the heart.
What exchanges blood between the arterial and venous systems?
The arterial and venous systems are connected in the body tissues by capillaries, and also in the heart.
Where does the blood go after the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen?
Blood flows from the venous system to the right atrium of the heart to the right ventricle of the heart through the pulmonary arteries, to the lungs (where the CO2/O2 exchange is done) through the pulmonary veins, and back to the left atrium of the heart, to the left ventricle of the heart, and out through the aorta and to the rest of the body. It then returns through the veins and repeats the process.
How many ventricles on the right side of the heart?
The heart is composed of four chambers - ONE of each: right atrium, RIGHT VENTRICLE, left atrium and left ventricle.
The main trunk of the arterial system that begins from the left ventricle of the heart is the?
aorta
What is the main trunk of the arterial system which begins from the left ventricle of the heart?
Aorta
What side of the heart pumps the red blood?
Oxygenated blood (brighter red in color) is pumped by the left ventricle to the aorta and then on to the rest of the body, through the arterial system.
What is a continuation of the electrical system of the heart that follows the outer walls of the ventricle?
The His-Purkinje system is the part of the heart's electrical system that follows the outer walls of the ventricle.
What are the three major part of your circulatory system?
Very simply put the venous system, the arterial system and your heart. The venous system bring blood from your organs and extremities to your heart, which pumps it and the arterial system takes it from your heart to your organs and extremities.
What system is Ventricle in?
the heart it has a left and right side. and it is in the circulatory system.
What system is the ventricle in?
the heart it has a left and right side. and it is in the circulatory system.
What organ system that moves blood around your body?
the group of organs that pump blood to and from your heart are called ventricles. you have two located in your heart, they are the right ventricle and the left ventricle. hope this helps. ^_^
What happens when the ventricles of heart contract?
The "beat" of your heart is the contraction of the right and left ventricles. The right atrium passes blood from the body into the right ventricle -- when the ventricle contracts, it forces shut the valve leading back to the atrium, and the blood is pushed into the pulmonary arteries that lead to the lungs. The blood returns from the lungs to the left atrium, and flows into the left ventricle. When the left ventricle contracts, the blood is pushed out of the ventricle into the aorta, the body's main artery, to be carried through the arterial system to the various parts of the body.

What is the pathway of blood from the heart to the lungs and back to the heart starting with the right ventricle?
circulatory system
Is the left ventricle a respiratory or circulatory system?
The left ventricle is a chamber of the heart that pumps blood to the body through the aorta, so it is a member of the circulatory system.
