Blood coming from the lungs has lower pressure while that from the heart has higher pressure. Blood coming from the lungs also has higher oxygen content and lower carbon dioxide content compared to that coming from the heart.

What do you think would happen if the blood entering the heart mixed with the blood leaving the heart?
if blood entering the heart gets mixed with blood leaving the heart the the blood leaving the heart will get poluted. the blood entering the heart is poluted when it enters the heart, the heart cleans it up; so when the blood leaves the heart it is clean so if it gets polluted the person may get sick and this leads to his/her death.
What chambers of the heart receive blood entering from the different parts of the body and from lungs?
The right artium and ventricle receives blood from the tissues. The left atrium and ventricle receives blood from the lungs.
What path does a drop of blood follow from entering the heart to leaving the heart through the aorta?
From the vena cava, blood travels into the right atrium, then the right ventricle. The right ventricle pumps the blood through the pulmonary arteries to the lungs. The pulmonary vein carries the oxygenated blood back to the left atrium. The blood flows from the left atrium into the left ventricle which pumps the blood through the aorta and to the rest of the body.
Where does oxgyen rich blood go after leaving the lungs?
Oxygenated go into the heart through renal vein and specifically in left atrium.
Where does blood goes after leaving the lungs?
Oxygenated blood leaves the lungs and returns to the heart via pulmonary veins to be pumped throughout the body.
How does blood entering the lungs differ from blood leaving the lungs?
The blood leaving the lungs is loaded with oxygen, while blood entering the lungs is about to get oxygen from the respiratory system.
What does the blood entering the lungs has more off than the blood leaving the lungs?
carbon dioxide
How does the blood entering the heart from the lung differ from the blood entering the heart from the blood?
The blood entering from the lungs has a high oxygen content and the blood entering from the body is high in carbon dioxide.
Blood leaving the lungs is?
Blood leaving the lungs is oxygenated
How does the blood entering the right atrium differ from the blood entering the left atrium?
Blood entering the right atrium is deoxygenated and saturated with CO2. Blood that is entering the left atrium has passed through the lungs and is oxygenated. It returns to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein and is saturated with oxygen. - Med Student
Blood entering the left atrium is usually what?
Blood entering the left atrium is oxygenated blood coming from the lungs that is pumped throughout the rest of the body.
Why pH of blood leaving the lungs less acidic than blood entering the lungs?
Carbon dioxide, when combined in liquid is mildly acidic. When you exhale, you're outgassing CO2. This would result in a small pH change making your blood less acidic as CO2 is released and O2 taken up.
What harmful waste material leaves the blood and travels through the lungs before leaving your body?
Carbon dioxide leaves the blood and travels through the lungs before leaving your body.
Is blood going to the heart darker or lighter than blood going away from the heart?
Blood entering the heart from Superior vena cava and Inferior vena cava is "dirty". Bloold going through Pulmonary artery is 'dirty" and is "cleaned" (oxygenated) in the lungs. Blood entering the heart via pulmonary vein and leaving via aorta is clean.
In a mammal blood leaving the lungs next goes to the heart?
Yes
How does blood in the artery leaving the right ventricle differ from the blood in the artery leaving the left ventricle to where does the artery leaving the right ventricle carry blood?
The blood leaving the left ventricle is oxygen-rich and the blood coming out of the right ventricle is oxygen-poor. It then goes through the pulmonary arteries and into the capillaries of the lung where the carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen.
When Blood entering the heart is pumped to the lungs before being pumped back out to the body why is this important?
The blood absorbs oxygen from the lungs - enabling it to be transported throughout the body.
