What pumps oxygenated blood to the lungs?

The right ventricle is responsible for that


Why is the circulatory system called a double loop?

There are two loops to the human heart, a pulmonary loop and a systemic loop. All of the oxygen-poor blood returns to the heart via the right atrium and flows into the right ventricle. When the right ventricle contracts blood is forced into the pulmonary arteries to the lungs to receive fresh oxygenation before returning to the heart. That is called the pulmonary loop, pulmonary referring to the lungs. When the freshly oxygenated blood returns to the heart it will flow into the left atrium and then the left ventricle. The left ventricle will squeeze blood into the aorta which delivers the oxygenated blood to the rest of the body. That is known as the systemic loop, as in the body systems. When the deoxygenated blood drains from the body tissues back through the venous system, it will empty into the right atrium of the heart beginning the process all over again.


Which valve is responsible for preventing the back flow of blood into the right ventricle?

The pulmonary semilunar valve, also called the pulmonic valve, prevents blood that was ejected out of the right ventricle into the pulmonary artery from flowing back into the right ventricle.


Which chamber is responsible for pumping blood into the pulmonary circulation?

The right ventricle pumps blood into the pulmonary circuit. Blood flows from the right ventricle, through the pulmonary arteries, to the lungs where oxygen is received. Right Ventricle right atriumThe right side of the heart accepts blood from the superior and inferior vena cavae via the right atrium. This blood passes through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle, which then pumps the blood through the pulmonic valve into the pulmonary artery and to the lungs to be oxygenated.


Pulmonary semilunar valve guards the entrance to the?

The correct answer is between the right ventricle and pulmonary trunk.


What is vessel carries blood away fromt he right ventricle?

The right ventricle actually pumps the blood through a valve to the pulmonary artery.


What is the order for superior vena cava right ventricle left ventricle right atrium left atrium pulmonary vein pulmonary artery and aorta?

Vena cava, right atrium, tricuspid valve, right ventricle, pulmonary trunk, pulmonary arteries, lungs, pulmonary veins, left atrium, bicuspid valve, left ventricle, aortic semilunar valve, aorta.


Blood leaves the right ventricle then passes through a valve and enters what blood vessel?

through seminular valve at the time of ventricle contaraction blood from right ventricle is pumped to lungs.


What set of chambers supplies blood to pulmonary circulation?

The right ventricle of the heart pumps deoxygenated blood to the pulmonary circulation through the pulmonary arteries. Once in the lungs, the blood picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide before returning to the heart through the pulmonary veins.


Blood ejected from the ventricles enters which vessels during ventricular systole?

The right ventricle empties into the pulmonary arteries and the left ventricle empties into the aorta.


What is the purpose of the Pulmonary valve?

The pulmonary valve is the tricuspid valve between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery. It prevents blood from flowing down the artery back into the right ventricle.
