Oxygenated blood flows from the lungs to the left atrium contractions (heart muscle) cause the blood to leave the atrium and enter the left ventricle. Further contraction causes the blood to leave the atrium and enter the aorta.
After passing through the lungs, oxygenated blood travels back to the heart and is pumped out to the rest of the body through the arteries.
arteries and veins
The largest arteries are closest to the heart, passing blood to smaller arteries, and then again to even smaller arteries, until finally passing blood in a single file line through the capillaries which allow the nutrients and oxygen to seep out and nourish the organs and tissue.
No the heart pumps the blood but it does pump the blood through the arteries.
Because the arteries wouldn't be able to have blood flow through your body unlike arteries veins are through out your whole body so they can transport blood through your whole body, veins keep your blood circulating
Because they restrict the amount of blood passing through the arteries. If there are fatty deposits around the edges of the artery or vein, then there is less room for the blood to get through. This would mean that less blood would get through with each heart beat, and could cause more serious injuries - for example, a heart attack.
heart! ! the pulses through both ventricles and atria passing through the valves like the tricuspid make the pulses. the aorta and other arteries bring the blood to the body organs.
through arteries
Blood enters the kidneys via the renal arteries, which branch off the abdominal aorta. Inside the kidney, the renal arteries further divide into smaller arterioles, eventually leading to the glomerulus where filtration occurs. After passing through the glomerulus, blood flows through the renal veins, ultimately exiting the kidneys through the renal veins.
Blood is pumped by the heart.
blood travels away from the heart through arteries and blood travels to the heart through the veins
