What do the foramen ovale and ductus arteriosus do?

That is a very good question! In case of the fetus, the blood flow through the lungs is closed. So most of the blood passes through the foramen ovale to left atrium. Some blood goes to right ventricle. it is pumped by the right ventricle into pulmonary aorta. This blood passes to systemic aorta via ductus arteriosus. Both the blood flows stops after the birth of the baby. Baby takes a first breath. Blood starts to flow through the lungs. Due to pressure changes the foramen ovale get closed. By the same reason the ductus arteriosus get closed, as the circular muscles of the artery can contract.
