Blood traveling through the pulmonary veins is being returned to the heart from the lungs. The pulmonary veins have the distinction of being the only veins in the body which carry oxygenated, rather than deoxygenated blood.

What is the flow of the blood as it enters until it leaves the heart?

Dexoygenated blood being brought back to the heart from the body via veins enters the superior or inferior vena cava (largest vein) which empties into the right atrium, it passes through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle, it then passes through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary trunk to the left and right pulmonary arteries which carries blood to the left and right lungs where blood picks up oxygen and drops off carbon dioxide, it then returns through the right and left pulmonary veins into the left atrium then it passes through the bicuspid valve into the left ventricle, then passes through the aortic valve into the aorta and back to the rest of the body through arteries


What is the last valve oxygen depleted blood must pass through before pumping to the lungs?

The last valve oxygen-depleted blood must pass through before being pumped to the lungs is the pulmonary valve. This valve separates the right ventricle from the pulmonary artery and prevents blood from flowing back into the heart. Once the blood passes through this valve, it enters the pulmonary artery and travels to the lungs for oxygenation.


What is the correct sequence in which a drop of blood returning from the body encounters the heart chambers?

First, the deoxygenated blood enters the right atrium, then goes through the right ventricle. From there, it goes to the lungs, to become oxygenated. The oxygenated blood then goes through the left atrium and ventricle, before being pumped through the aorta to the rest of the body.

Blood that is poor in nutrients is carried from the aorta to the?

pulmonary artery, where it is then transported to the lungs to pick up oxygen and get rid of carbon dioxide. After circulating through the lungs, the now oxygenated blood returns to the heart through the pulmonary veins before being pumped out to the rest of the body through the aorta.


What way does the water move when waves passes through?

As the wave passes through, water particles move in an orbital motion. The particles move in a circular pattern, with the energy of the wave being transferred horizontally as the wave travels. This orbital motion causes the water to rise and fall as the wave passes through.
