The pulmonary trunk is a major blood vessel that carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs. It splits into the left and right pulmonary arteries, which transport the blood to each lung for oxygenation. This process is crucial for removing carbon dioxide and replenishing blood with oxygen, enabling efficient gas exchange essential for overall body function.

What is the function of the pulmonary trunk?
the pulmonary trunk is the "pipe" that your blood goes through to get from the right side of the heart to the lungs to get oxygenated.
What is the function of the pulmonic?
The function of the pulmonary sinuses is to separate both of the semilunar cusps that are in the pulmonary trunk valve. They forma think wall between the two.
What is the function of the pulmonic sinuses?
The function of the pulmonary sinuses is to separate both of the semilunar cusps that are in the pulmonary trunk valve. They forma think wall between the two.
What is the function of the pulmonary semilunar valve?
Prevents backflow of blood from the pulmonary trunk (artery) into the right ventricle
Pulmonary semilunar valve guards the entrance to the?
The correct answer is between the right ventricle and pulmonary trunk.
What vessels do the pulmonary trunk divide into?
The pulmonary trunk divides into the left and right pulmonary arteries.
What is the function of the pulmonary arch?
either the right or the left sixth aortic arch that in the human fetus persists on the right side as the right pulmonary artery and on the left side as the ductus arteriosus and part of the pulmonary trunk
Gives rise to left and right pulmonary arteries?
pulmonary trunk The previous answer was coronary arteries, but I asked my bio teacher and she said the answer was pulmonary trunk.
What gives rise to the left and right pulmonary arteries?
the pulmonary trunk
The valve located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary trunk is?
The valve located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary trunk is the pulmonary semilunar valve, also known as the pulmonic valve. This valve prevents the backflow of blood from the pulmonary trunk into the right ventricle during the heart's pumping cycle.
Which heart chamber pumps blood to the pulmonary trunk?
The right ventricle pumps blood to the pulmonary trunk.
What is pathway of blood from the right atrium to the pulmonary trunk?
Blood flows from the right atrium into the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve. Upon contraction of the right ventricle, blood is pumped through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary trunk. The pulmonary trunk then divides into the left and right pulmonary arteries, which carry deoxygenated blood to the lungs for oxygenation.
