I DON'T KNOW.
It does nothing.
The right atrium and right ventrical collect blood returning to the heart. After passive filling has taken place, the right atrium contracts to force the blood it contains into the already filled right ventrical. This same process is also happens between the left atrium and left ventrical. This additional blood volume is known as atrial kick and contributes up to 30% to cardiac output. Patients with erratic atrial rhythms, such as atrial fibrillation, lose atrial kick and have lower cardiac outputs. With reduce cardiac output, the body is less efficient and blood flow to the entire body is compromised. In mild cases, the person will suffer fatigue and shortness of breath with any exertion. In more severe cases, the person may experience heart failure, renal insufficiency, angina, myocardial infarction, or even death.

∙ 12y agoBlood from all over the body, head to foot, brought by the superior and the inferior vena cava gets collected in the right atrium. It is then pushed to the right ventricle from where it is pumped to the lungs by pulmonary arteries for oxygenation.

∙ 13y agoThe right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the body through the superior and inferior vena cava during diastole. Then, the right atrium pumps its blood through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle.
Basically, regarding the four chambers of the heart, it is the first stop for blood.

How many chambers in the wolf heart?
3 right atrium, left artrium and ventricle
The differences between the left and the right atria?
the right artrium carries deoxygenated blood, while the left atrium carries oxygenated blood
Prevents blood movement from right ventricle to right artrium?
the tricuspid valve prevents the movement of blood from right ventricle to right atrium the ventricle opens into the aorta though the semi lunar valves
What is a artrium?
The Atrium are upper chambers of the heart.
Where does the blood start before flowing to the heart?
Blood flows from the heart into the left atrium, into the left ventricle. From there, it flows from the right artrium into the left ventricle.
What do right artrium do?
Blood from all over the body, head to foot, brought by the superior and the inferior vena cava gets collected in the right atrium. It is then pushed to the right ventricle from where it is pumped to the lungs by pulmonary arteries for oxygenation.
Deoxygenated blood from the body first enters the of the heart?
The right atrium is where deoxygenated blood enters the heart.
How does the blood entering the right atrium differ from the blood entering the left atrium?
Blood entering the right atrium is deoxygenated and saturated with CO2. Blood that is entering the left atrium has passed through the lungs and is oxygenated. It returns to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein and is saturated with oxygen. - Med Student
