It goes through the pulmonary artery, to the lung. Becomes oxygenated, and goes to the left atrium. It is pumped through the Mitral valve, into the Left Ventricle. Left Ventricle pumps it through the aortic valve to the aorta.

Where does blood travel after the right auricle?

It travels to the right ventricle passing through the tricuspid valve. Then it travels to the lungs via pulmonary arteries. The oxygenated blood from the lungs returns to the heart (into the left auricle). From the left auricle the blood travels to the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps it to aorta. The blood travels through the arteries and veins, then it returns to the right auricle of heart.


When blood travels through the triscupid valve. Where does it go next?

Blood travels from the right atrium to the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve. It then goes through the pulmonary artery to the lungs, where it becomes oxygenated, then back to the heart via the pulmonary vein. From the left atrium it goes down through the bicuspid valve to the left ventricle, then it's off to the body again via the aorta (the 'almighty artery' as I like to call it lol).


The blood now rich in oxygen re enters the heart though the pulmonary?

When blood that is rich in oxygen re enters the heart, the blood enters through the pulmonary valve. The pulmonary valve brings the oxygen rich blood to the pulmonary trunk of the pulmonary artery.


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 happens to speed of light when travel through plastic?

When light travels through anything that is not a vacuum, it will usually slow down.

In function of the heart is to what blood to the lungs?

Well, the pulmonary trunk / pulmonary arteries bring deoxygenated blood to the lungs. From there it travels through pulmonary veins into the left atria. From the left atria it travels through the bicuspid valve into the left ventricle. When the left ventricle relaxes after a contraction, the blood passes through the aortic semilunar valve and into the aorta. From there it pretty much just goes to the rest of the body


What does the blood travel through to return to the heart?

Starting in the right atrium, the blood flows through the tricuspid valve to the right ventricle. Here it is pumped out the pulmonary semilunar valve and travels through the pulmonary artery to the lungs. From there, blood flows back through the pulmonary vein to the left atrium. It then travels through the mitral valve to the left ventricle, from where it is pumped through the aortic semilunar valve to the aorta. The aorta forks, and the blood is divided between major arteries which supply the upper and lower body. The blood travels in the arteries to the smaller arterioles, then finally to the tiny capillaries which feed each cell. The (relatively) deoxygenated blood then travels to the venules, which coalesce into veins, then to the inferior and superior venae cavae and finally back to the right atrium where the process began.


What is the path blood takes through the heart?

Blood enters the heart through the superior and inferior vena cava. These two paths dump deoxygenated blood into the right atrium. Blood passes from the right atrium through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. The right ventricle contracts and forces the blood through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary arteries. The blood moves into the lungs and gas exchange occurs, oxygenating the blood. The blood then moves through the pulmonary vein, emptying into the left atrium. The oxygenated blood then passes through the bicuspid valve into the left ventricle. The left ventricle contracts and forces the blood out through the aortic semilunar valve and into the aorta. The aorta is the bodies largest artery and blood is distributed to smaller arteries and out to the entire body (except the lungs). Remember simply: Body -> Vena Cava -> Right Atrium -> Tricuspid Valve -> Right Ventricle -> Pulmonary Semilunar Valve -> Pulmonary Artery -> Lungs -> Pulmonary Vein -> Left Atrium -> Bicuspid (Mitral) Valve -> Left Ventricle -> Aortic Semilunar Valve -> Aorta -> Body If you can remember this, remembering heart anatomy and understanding how the heart works is very simple.


What is the first chamber of the heart to receive oxygenated blood?

Left atrium.


Blood leaves the right ventricle and passes through?

Blood travels from the left ventricle to the aorta through the aortic valve.


In which direction is blood flowing in the pulmonary veins?

The left and right pulmonary veins carry oxygen rich blood to the left atrium. There are four of them total and is best seen from a posterior surface view of the heart.Blood flow of the heart: say we start with the right atrium.1.) Right atrium2.) Tricuspid valve ( travels through Chorde Tendineae + Papillary muscles)3.) Right Ventricle4.) Pulmonary semilunar valve5.) Pulmonary Trunk6.) Left + Right Pulmonary Arteries7.) ( This is your Pulmonary Circulation through the lungs)8.) Lungs9.) Left and right Pulmonary veins10.) Left atrium11.) Bicuspid valve (Mitral valve) ( travels through Chorde Tendineae + Papillary muscles)12.) left ventricle13.) Aortic semilunar valve14.) ascending aorta15.) aortic arch16.) brachiocephalic trunk, left common carotid, or left subclavian artery.Or takes the decending aorta route.17.)( This is your systemic circulation)18.) Comes back through veins: Superior vena cava, inferior vena cava, or coronary sinus.19.) Back into Right atrium

Which heart chamber receives blood from the body?

Oxygen poor blood enters the RIGHT ATRIUM from the body. The Circulatery System: Starting in the right atrium, the blood flows through the tricuspid valve to the right ventricle. Here it is pumped out the pulmonary semilunar valve and travels through the pulmonary artery to the lungs. From there, blood flows back through the pulmonary vein to the left atrium. It then travels through the mitral valve to the left ventricle, from where it is pumped through the aortic semilunar valve to the aorta. The aorta forks, and the blood is divided between major arteries which supply the upper and lower body. The blood travels in the arteries to the smaller arterioles, then finally to the tiny capillaries which feed each cell. The (relatively) deoxygenated blood then travels to the venules, which coalesce into veins, then to the inferior and superior venae cavae and finally back to the right atrium where the process began.


What are the directions that the blood travels through the heart?

Blood from the systemic circulation system is carried by way of the superior and inferior vena cava, both of which empties into the right atrium of the heart. Blood then passes through the tricuspid valve and enters the right ventricle. Next, the blood is pumped out of the right ventricle, through the pulmonary valve, and to the lungs via the pulmonary arteries. Blood gases are exchanged at the lungs as blood flows through the capillary beds of the alveoli. Blood flows back to the heart via the pulmonary veins and enters the left atrium. Blood from the atrium is pumped into the left ventricle through the mitral valve. Finally, Blood then leaves the left ventricle through the aortic valve and enters the aorta. The aorta once again begins the systemic portion of the circulation system and branches off into many arteries.


When does blood have most oxygen in it?

In Homo sapiens, blood is most highly oxygenated as it leaves the lungs in the pulmonary vein. It travels from the pulmonary vein to the left atrium, is transferred to the left ventricle, and is pumped through the aorta. From the aorta, it travels through various arteries to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the body's tissues. It travels back to the heart through the veins, is pumped from the right atrium into the right ventricle, and exits the heart in the pulmonary artery. This deoxygenated blood returns to the lungs through the pulmonary artery to retrieve more oxygen. In a healthy Homo sapien, the blood traveling from the pulmonary vein and through the arteries should always be 99%-100% oxygenated.


Trace the pathway of carbon dioxide gas in the blood from the inferior vena cava until it leaves the blood stream?

The structures that venous blood cells (with carbon dioxide) pass through are:inferior vena cavaright atrium (out through tricuspid valve)right ventricle (out through semilunar valve)pulmonary artery/arterioles/capillariesalveoli in the lungIncluding the heart valves, the path is from the inferior vena cava, where it will be pulled into the right atrium. It is pushed into the right ventricle through the right atrioventricular valve (a tricuspid valve) then pumped from the right ventricle through the pulmonary valve(semilunar) into the pulmonary artery and sent to the lungs, where it will pass through pulmonary arterioles and pulmonary capillaries to reach the alveoli, in which the carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood and is expelled from the lungs during exhalation.The complete path out of the body is:Inferior Vena Cava-Right Atrium-Right Atrioventricular valve-Right Ventricle-Pulmonary Semilunar valve-Pulmonary Artery-Pulmonary arteriole-Pulmonary capillaries-alveolar sacs-tertiary bronchioles-secondary bronchioles-primary bronchioles-bronchus-trachea-larynx-pharynx-epiglottis-mouth, or nostrils via the nasal cavity.
