What is the pathway that an embolism from the great saphenous vein of the leg would take before lodging in the pulmonary artery?
An embolism from the great saphenous vein in the leg would first travel through the venous system into the femoral vein, then into the external iliac vein. From there, it would enter the common iliac vein and subsequently the inferior vena cava. Finally, the embolism would flow into the right atrium, pass into the right ventricle, and then be pumped into the pulmonary artery, where it may lodge and cause a pulmonary embolism.
What else can I help you with?
The pathway of blood during the pulmonary circulation?
pathway of blood circulatwed by pulomanary
Which side of the heart pumps blood into the pulmonary circulation pathway?
the left side of the heart pumps blood into the pulmonary
Which of the pathway includes the heart lungs and the arteries and vein between them?
The pulmonary circuit.
Which transportation pathway carries blood from the heart to the lungs and from the lungs to the heart?
Pulmonary circulation :)
The pathway from the superior and inferior vena cavas through the right side of the heart to the lungs is called the?
Lesser circulation or the pulmonary circulation.
What pathway does the blood flow when the ventricles undergo contraction?
When the ventricles contract, the right ventricle pushes blood up through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary arteries via the pulmonary trunk, and the left ventricle pushes blood up through the aortic semilunar valve into the Aorta.
The pathway of oxygenated blood and deoxygenated blood through the heart?
Pulmonary vein, left atrium, left ventricle, aorta, arteries ,then to the capillaries
What is the sequence of valves in the pathway of blood from the venae cavae to the aorta is?
-tricuspid valve -pulmonary semilunar valve -mitral/bicuspid valve -aotic valve
Which vessels have a high oxygen content aorta pulmonary veins or pulmonary arteries?
They love this question on test! This is the only spot in the adult that the terms artery and vein are reversed. So in this case the pulmonary vein have the highest oxygen content. The pulmonary vein return blood from the lung, where it just got oxygenated.

Where is the blood going to when it leaves the right side of the heart?
The pathway of a red blood cell from the right atrium and back. (1) right atrium -> (2) right AV valve -> (3) right ventricle -> (4) pulmonary valve -> (5) pulmonary trunk -> (6) pulmonary arteries -> (7) lungs, for exchange of gases (not shown) -> (8) pulmonary veins -> (9) left atrium -> (10) left AV valve -> (11) left ventricle -> (12) aortic valve -> (13) aorta -> (14) other systemic vessels -> (15) inferior and superior venae cavae -> (16) back to the right atrium The pathway from 5 to 8 is the pulmonary circuit. The pathway from 13 to 15 is the systemic circuit.
Pathway of blood cell through the circulatory system?
Right atrium > tricuspid valve > right ventricle > pulmonary semilunar valve > pulmonary arteries > lungs > pulmonary veins > left atrium > bicuspid valve > left ventricle > aortic semilunar valve > aorta > arteries > arterioles > capillaries > venues > veins > superior/inferior vena cava > right atrium (again)
