∙ 14y agousually the right side....are you talking about heart failure? The left side has more rich blood because it contains more oxygen...or so I've been told

The left side of the heart pumps oxygen poor blood to the?
is the body
Where do the right side of a bird's heart pump blood to?
The right side of the heart pumps blood to the lungs to pick up oxygen. From the lungs it goes back to the left side of the heart, which pumps it out to the rest of the body. Blood then returns to the right side of the heart and starts the cycle over.
Which chamber of the heart is responsible for pumping deoxygenated blood to the lungs?
The right ventricle pumps oxygen poor blood to the heart through the pumonary artery. (Correction- the right ventricle pumps oxygen-poor blood FROM the heart TO the lungs, not to the heart, through the right and left pulmonary arteries. The only thing that could be considered to pump blood to the heart is the "muscular pump" which is the skeletal muscle which, when it contracts, helps squeeze blood back towards the heart for venous return from the lower systemic veins.)
Which atrium receives oxygen-poor blood from the body?
The right atrium of the heart receives oxygen-poor blood from the body.
Why is it important for your heart to keep oxygen-rich blood separate from oxygen poor blood?
If the oxygen-rich blood and the oxygen poor blood mix the amount of oxygen becomes diluted. The cells and tissues need more oxygen than they will get.
Does the heart pump out only oxygen-rich blood?
No. The heart pumps oxygen-poor blood to the lungs, and pumps oxgyen-rich blood to the body.
The right side of the heart pumps oxygen-poor blood to the?
It pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs.
The left side of the heart pumps oxygen poor blood to the?
is the body
What actually receives oxygen poor blood?
Oxygen poor blood is returned to the heart, which pumps it to the lungs where it gets oxygenated, and then it goes back to the heart, and then back out to the body.
Which heart chambers have oxygen-poor blood?
The right chambers have oxygen poor blood. The right atrium receives oxygen-poor blood from the body circulation, and the right ventricle pumps it to the lungs.
In what sense is the heart a double pump?
The right side of the heart receives oxygen-poor blood from the body and pumps it to your lungs. The left side receives oxygen-rich blood and from the lungs and pumps it into the body.
Where do the right side of a bird's heart pump blood to?
The right side of the heart pumps blood to the lungs to pick up oxygen. From the lungs it goes back to the left side of the heart, which pumps it out to the rest of the body. Blood then returns to the right side of the heart and starts the cycle over.
What happens after your right vertical pumps oxygen-poor blood from the heart?
it goes to the lungs and get oxygenated then returns to the heart to be pumped to the body
What pumps oxygen-rich blood to the body?
I think you meant "through the body". if that is so: the heart does, it pumps oxygen poor blood to your lungs. then the blood absorbs the oxygen with the help of diffusion. this is like smoke: smoke doesn't stay together, it goes to places where no smoke is. the same counts for your blood, there is no oxygen in it so the oxygen goes into your veins. then the heart pumps it around the body until the oxygen is used up. the process will start over again.Your heart.
Why is the blood flowing to the heart oxygen-poor while the blood flowing to the rest of the body is oxygen-rich?
When the blood is flowing back to the heart, the blood has already given off its oxygen to the rest of the body which means it contain less oxygen concentration in the blood. and when blood is flowing from the heart to the rest of the body, the blood contains high level of oxygen because they were being given oxygen by the lungs which passes along the heart and the heart pumps it to the rest of the body.
Is Blood pumped by right ventricle oxygen-rich or oxygen-poor?
Yes, the right ventricle transports oxygenated blood to the lungs.
What type of blood vessel takes blood from cells to the heart?
Arteries carry oxygen-poor blood from the heart; veins carry oxygen-poor blood back to the heart.
