What are the functions of the pulmary vein?
Pulmonary Vein pumps blood from the heart to the lungs to be oxygenatedANS2:The pulmonary vein is the only vein that carries oxygenated blood. The blood returns from the lungs to the heart to be pumped to the body.
What are the names of the blood vessels that the blood is pumped through?
the names are called vein or your blood vessels
How is the blood from the pulmonary vein different from blood in other veins?
It's the only vein that carries oxygenated blood. It brings this oxygenated blood back to the heart (into the left atrium) where it can then be pumped around the body.
What vein carries blood from the lungs to the left atrium?
The pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood back to the heart, to be pumped to the body.
How is blood in the pulmonary vein different from blood in other veins?
It's the only vein that carries oxygenated blood. It brings this oxygenated blood back to the heart (into the left atrium) where it can then be pumped around the body.
Why is the pulmonary vein so important?
It carries oxygenated blood from the lungs into the heart where the oxygented blood is then pumped around the rest of the body.
What is taken from the lungs when its pumped to the heart?
Oxygenated blood is moved from the lungs to the heart. This transport occurs in the pulmonary vein.
Does oxygenated blood travel back into the heart through the right vein the left pulmonary vein or both?
No, deoxygenated blood flow back to the heart from the body, and then gets pumped to the lungs to get more oxygen.
Does the aorta pump oxyagen into the blood?
No aorta pumps blood out og the heart to carry blood to the rest of the body.Blood is pumped in through the semi-luner valve and the pulmonary vein.
Do vein valves control the veins?
No. They prevent back flow as the blood pressure is much lower on the venous side. The blood has to get to the heart so it can be pumped to the lungs.
What is the role of a vein?
Veins allow blood to travel from the body and lungs back to the heart (to be pumped to the body and lungs, simutaneously and seperately).
When the ventricles contract where is the blood pumped?
In a human heart when the right ventricle contracts the blood is pumped into the pulmonary artery, which goes to the lungs and returns to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein. The left atrium pumps the blood into left ventricle which pumps the blood to the aorta. From the aorta the blood is transported to the rest of the body.
