3

Which of these represents the path of blood flow through the heart?

62% Answer Correctly

left atrium → left ventricle → lungs → right atrium → right ventricle

right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle

right atrium → left ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle

left atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → right ventricle


Solution

To provide oxygen to the body, blood flows through the heart in a path formed by the right atrium → right ventricle → lungs → left atrium → left ventricle → body. When blood enters the right side of the heart it is deoxygenated. It enters the left side of the heart oxygenated after traveling to the lungs.
