The right atrium receives de-oxygenated blood from the body through the superior vena cava (head and upper body) and inferior vena cava (legs and lower torso). The sinoatrial node sends an impulse that causes the cardiac muscle tissue of the atrium to contract in a coordinated, wave-like manner. The tricuspid valve, which separates the right atrium from the right ventricle, opens to allow the de-oxygenated blood collected in the right atrium to flow into the right ventricle. The right ventricle receives de-oxygenated blood as the right atrium contracts. The pulmonary valve leading into the pulmonary artery is closed, allowing the ventricle to fill with blood. Once the ventricles are full, they contract. As the right ventricle contracts, the tricuspid valve closes and the pulmonary valve opens. The closure of the tricuspid valve prevents blood from backing into the right atrium and the opening of the pulmonary valve allows the blood to flow into the pulmonary artery toward the lungs. The left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs through the pulmonary vein. As the contraction triggered by the sinoatrial node progresses through the atria, the blood passes through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. The left ventricle receives oxygenated blood as the left atrium contracts. The blood passes through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. The aortic valve leading into the aorta is closed, allowing the ventricle to fill with blood. Once the ventricles are full, they contract. As the left ventricle contracts, the mitral valve closes and the aortic valve opens. The closure of the mitral valve prevents blood from backing into the left atrium and the opening of the aortic valve allows the blood to flow into the aorta and flow throughout the body.
Pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood to the heart from the lungs
The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs.
The pulmonary veins are high in oxygen and carry blood to the heart. The heart will then pump it to the rest of the body.
pulmonary artery
The pulmonary vein.The pulmonary veins transport oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart.
Oxygenated blood or oxygen rich blood.
All arteries carry blood from the heart to another organ in the body. The pulmonary artery carries blood from the heart to the lungs.
The pulmonary veins carries oxygen rich blood from the lungs to the heart.
Carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atria of the heart. Brings blood from the lungs to the heart.
pulmonary vein
The pulmonary vein carries oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to the heart.
The pulmonary artery Carries blood containing Oxygen From your lungs to your Heart. So the answer you are seeking is Pulmonary Artery.
No, only in the systemic (body) circuit. The pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood.All veins carry blood to the heart. The pulmonary vein carries oxygen rich blood to the heart from the lungs.
