The heart has 4 quadrants. The Right and Left atrium (on the top) and the Right and Left ventricles (on the bottom)

Deoxygenated blood enters the right atrium via the superior and inferior Venea Cava. From there it goes through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle and then flows threw the pulmonic valve into the pulmonary artery (the only artery in the body to carry deoxygenated blood) and goes to the lungs to become oxygenated. The now oxygenated blood leaves the lungs via the Pulmonary vein (the only vein in the body to carry oxygenated blood) and then enters the left atrium. From the left atrium the blood flows threw the mitral valve into the left ventricle (the biggest and strongest portion of the heart) where it is then pumped out of the aortic valve to the body!

On a diagram of the heart what side does oxygenated blood go?

The right.


Where does blood go to from the right side of the heart?

Blood leaves the right side of the heart and goes to out the pulmonary trunk (a very large artery) to the pulmonary arteries (left and right) to the capillaries in the lungs and picks up oxygen.


Is the blood entering the right side of the heart is low in oxygen because it has just returned to the heart after nourishing the body with needed oxygen?

Correct. Blood returning to the right side of the heart has already left the body and returned to the heart to be pumped to the lungs. There it will let go of carbon dioxide and pick up oxygen.


Which side of the heart receives oxygenated blood?

The right side. After the blood has been oxygenized from the lungs, it passes through to the aortic valve to go to other parts of the body.

Why does the left side of the heart carry deoxygenated blood?

lemmie just give you the whole story: we breath in oxygen which goes to our lungs and diffuses into the blood in our pulmonary vein. this vein carries the oxygenated blood to the left atrium of our heart, then down to the left ventricle. This part of the heart is v. strong, as it then pumps the blood through the aorta to the muscles all over our body, which then take the oxygen to respire. From out body, the deoxygenated blood goes through the vena cava to the right atrium of our heart, then to the right ventricle that pumps that DEOXYGENATED blood up to the lungs to go all over again. hope i helped :)
