Which part of the heart contracts to send blood to the lungs?

The right side and sends blood to the lungs


Which vessel receives blood during right ventricular systole?

aortaAND..pulmonary trunk


Which side of the heart receives de-oxygenated blood and which receives oxygenated blood?

The pulmonary artery carries de-oxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs. The pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the right atrium


What is function of the right ventricle?

The Right Ventricle receives blood from the right atrium and then transports the blood to the pulmonary artery.The right ventricle is one of four chambers (two atriaand two ventricles) in the human heart. It receives deoxygenatedblood from the right atrium via the tricuspid valve, and pumps it into the pulmonary artery via the pulmonary valve and pulmonary trunk.gago ang right ventricle!!!!Right ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood collected from all over the body by the right atrium [through superior vena cava & inferior vena cava ] to the lungs [by the pulmonary artery ] for its purification . Then this newly oxygenated blood comes to left atrium [auricle ] through 4 pulmonary veins & thus passed to the left ventricle which ultimately pass this oxygenated blood all over the body through Aorta .


What is the function of the ventricle?

The ventricles of the heart function to pump blood to the entire body. Right ventricle: receives blood from the right atrium and pumps it to the pulmonary artery (to lungs). Left ventricle: receives blood from left atrium and pumps to aorta (to rest of body). Hoped this helped byee!! :)

Which section of the heart receives blood from the right coronary artery?

The right atrium and ventricle receives blood from the right coronary artery. This blood supply is specific to the heart and is received from the coronary arteries.


Which structure receives blood as it flows from the right ventricle?

Pulmonary Artery


When the right ventricle of the heart receives blood from the right atrium and pumps it into the lungs via the?

Pulmonary Artery


Which ventricle does that artery carry blood and where?

Deoxygenated blood: Right ventricle --> Pulmonary artery --> LungOxygenated blood: Left ventricle --> Aorta --> Body


What structure receives blood as it flows from the right ventricle?

The right ventricle will receive blood from the right atria. When the right ventricle then contracts blood will be pushed through the pulmonic valve and into the pulmonic artery. This artery then divides into left and right pulmonic artery. The left going to the left lung and the right artery to the right lung. This blood flow helps the oxygen in your lungs enter your blood to be delivered to all your tissues.


What is the j ob of the right ventricle?

It receives deoxygenated (no oxygen in blood) from the right atrium and pumps it into the pulmonary artery.


What artery supplies blood to the right atrium and right ventricle?

The right coronary artery supplies blood to the right atrium and most of the right ventricle. It branches off from the aorta and runs along the surface of the heart, providing oxygenated blood to these areas.


Blood pumped by the right ventricle?

The right side of the blood receives deoxygenated blood from the systemic (body) circulation. The right atrium receives blood from the systemic veins and pumps it into the right ventricle. At that point, the right ventricle pumps that blood to the lungs.


Which part of the heart contracts to send blood to the lungs?

The right side and sends blood to the lungs


What does the right ventricile do?

The right ventricle receives deoxygenated blood from the right atrium through the tricuspid valve and pumps the blood into the pulmonary artery where it becomes oxygenated.


Which heart chamber receives blood from veins and body tissues?

The right atrium receives blood from the body via the vena cavae.The blood then moves into the right ventricle, then through the pulmonary artery to the lungs for re-oxygenation.


Where does the artery leaving the right ventricle carry blood?

The artery leaving the right ventricle, also called the pulmonary artery, takes blood to the lungs to exchange gas.
