Heart Anatomy and Blood Flow Assessment

What does the left side of the heart do? 

• The left side of the heart pumps  blood through the lungs where it gets oxygen.

• The left side of the heart receives the blood containing oxygen and pumps blood to the rest of the body.

• The left side of the heart controls the muscles on the left side of the body,

• The left side of the heart supplys our arms with bloo

Blood flows in the following sequence in the heart: Superior vena cava/Inferior vena cava, right atrium, tricuspid valve, right ventricle, pulmonic valve, pulmonary artery, lungs, pulmonary vein, left atrium, bicuspid valve, left ventricle, aortic valve, aorta

• True

• False

What part of the heart delivers unoxygenated blood to the lungs?

• Pulmonary artery

• Pulmonary Vein

• pulmonary artery, mitral valve

• pulmonary vein, tricuspid valve

• pulmonary artery, aortic valve

• . pulmonary vein, bicuspid valve

What part of the heart delivers richly oxygenated blood to the body?

• Tricuspid Valve

• Superior Vena Cava

• Aorta

• Pulmonary artery

On the right side of the heart, blood flows from the right ventricle to the?

• Tricuspid valve to the pulmonary vein

• Pulmonic valve to the pulmonary artery

• Tricuspid valve to pulmonary artery

• Inferior vena cava to the aorta

There are four chambers in the heart.
