Is the pulmonary trunk oxygen rich or oxygen poor?
Oxygen poor. It carries oxygen poor blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs to be oxygenated.
What side of the heart pumps oxygen rich blood?
The left ventricle pumps oxygen rich blood out of the heart through the aortic valve. The heart works as a pump with an average of 72 beats per minute in healthy adults.
What pumps oxygen-rich blood to the body?
I think you meant "through the body". if that is so: the heart does, it pumps oxygen poor blood to your lungs. then the blood absorbs the oxygen with the help of diffusion. this is like smoke: smoke doesn't stay together, it goes to places where no smoke is. the same counts for your blood, there is no oxygen in it so the oxygen goes into your veins. then the heart pumps it around the body until the oxygen is used up. the process will start over again.Your heart.
What is oxygen rich?
"Oxygen rich" means lots of oxygen. If the air in a room is "oxygen rich" things will burn better. "Oxygen poor" means there isn't much and "oxygen starved" means there is none or almost none.
What is the carrier of food nutrients and oxygen?
blood vessels. they are the pathways or tubes in the body through which blood flows. the blood vessel are of three kinds. these are the arteries, veins, and capillaries. the arteries carry blood away from the heart. the veins bring blood back to the heart. capillaries carry blood rich in oxygen to the tissue, and carry away waste products
What if oxygen-rich blood mixes with your oxygen-poor blood?
the quality of our blood that rich with oxygen will become low
Is dark blood oxygen-rich?
Dark red blood is oxygen-poor. Bright red blood is oxygen-rich.
Which atrium has oxygen-rich blood?
The left atrium receives oxygen-rich blood.
Is blood in the arteries in rich in oxygen?
By definition, ALL arteries carry Oxygen rich blood. Veins carry oxygen depleted blood.
What is blood carried away from the heart rich in?
blood coming from the HEART is rich in oxygen
Why is it important for your heart to separate oxygen rich blood from oxygen poor blood?
If the oxygen-rich blood and the oxygen poor blood mix the amount of oxygen becomes diluted. The cells and tissues need more oxygen than they will get.
What is the blood vessel that carries oxygen rich blood from the lung?
The pulmonary veins carry oxygen rich blood from the lungs to the heart.
Why is it important for your heart to keep oxygen-rich blood separate from oxygen poor blood?
If the oxygen-rich blood and the oxygen poor blood mix the amount of oxygen becomes diluted. The cells and tissues need more oxygen than they will get.

Is the blood rich in oxygen or poor in oxygen when it enters the left ventricle?
Blood entering the left ventricle is rich in oxygen. In contrast, oxygen-poor blood enters the right ventricle.
Which statement is true A. All arteries carry oxygen-rich blood. B. All veins carry oxygen-rich blood. C. All arteries except the pulmonary artery carry oxygen-rich blood. D. All veins except the pulmonary vein carry oxygen-rich blood?
All arteries except the pulmonary artery transport oxygen-rich blood
How do you know that the blood in the arteries is oxygen-rich?
oxygen rich blood is red, while oxygen poor blood is blue. this is the reason that blood in your arteries are always red, and blood in your veins are always blue.
