The blood coming from your body tissues is low in oxygen (O2) and needs to be pumped to your lungs to reduce their content of carbon dioxide and pick up more oxygen. Once it has done that, it returns to the heart to be pumped throughout your body.
The right ventricle pumps the blood to the lungs.
The right ventricle pumps the blood to the lungs.
Blood from the right ventricle goes through the pulmonic valve and then into the lungs.
From the right ventricle, the blood with flow through the pulmonary trunk and to the lungs.
The right ventricle empties into the pulmonary arteries which carry the deoxygenated blood to the lungs to be re-oxygenated.
The blood then flows into to the right ventricle, and out into the pulmonary artery through the pulmonic valve.
It flows through the pulmonary artery and towards the lungs where the blood will become oxygenated.
It follows the pulmonary arteries and end up in the lungs.
The heart is divided into four chambers, the right atrium and the right ventricle, and the left atrium and the left ventricle. Blood that is oxygen poor and high in carbon dioxide enters the heart through the right atrium and is then pumped out to go to the lungs via the right ventricle. The left atrium then pumps the newly oxygenated blood into the left ventricle, which then sends the blood to all parts of the body. So, in short, the right ventricle pumps oxygen poor blood to the lungs and the left ventricle pumps oxygen rich blood to the whole body.
Blood from the superior vena cava and inferior vena cava meet to flow into the right atrium, then to the right ventricle, in order to go into the lungs and refresh the oxygen in the blood .
The left ventricle pumps blood to the head and the whole body. The right ventricle pumps blood only to the lungs so therefore a smaller workload. The myocardium (heart muscle) is thicker around the left ventricle to give it extra force to pump the blood over longer distances.
The left ventricle is responsible for the movement of blood into the aorta, which carries it to all areas of the body except for the lungs. The blood passes through the lungs through the pulmonary trunk which originates in the right ventricle.
