The right ventricle pumps blood out of the heart to the systemic circuit. receives blood from the left atrium through the right atrioventricular (tricuspid) valve. has thinner muscular walls than does the left ventricle. is connected to the pulmonary veins. pumps blood out of the heart through the aortic valve.

Order the blood flow through the heart starting with blood being in the vena cava blood enters the right ventricle blood flows into aorta into the systemic circuit contraction of the right ventricle forces the right AV valve shut and the pulmonary valve open blood flows into pulmonary veins blood flows through opening of the right AV valve blood is oxygenated at capillary beds in lung alveolar tissues deoxygenated blood enters the right atrium contraction of the ventricles (left) forces the left AV valve to close and the aortic valve to open blood flows through opening of left AV valve blood flows to pulmonary arteries to lungs oxygenated blood enters the left atrium blood enters the left ventricle

Which answer correctly lists the flow of blood through the heart (starting at the right atrium)? a. right atrium à through tricuspid valve à right ventricle à through pulmonary valve à pulmonary trunk à pulmonary veins à lungs à pulmonary arteries à left atrium à through bicuspid valve à left ventricle à through aortic valve à aorta à body b. right atrium à through tricuspid valve à right ventricle à through pulmonary valve à pulmonary trunk à pulmonary arteries à body à pulmonary veins à left atrium à through bicuspid valve à left ventricle à through aortic valve à aorta à lungs c. right atrium à through tricuspid valve à left ventricle à through pulmonary valve à pulmonary trunk à pulmonary arteries à lungs à pulmonary veins à left atrium à through bicuspid valve à right ventricle à through aortic valve à aorta à body d. right atrium à through tricuspid valve à right ventricle à through pulmonary valve à pulmonary trunk à pulmonary arteries à lungs à pulmonary veins à left atrium à through bicuspid valve à left ventricle à through aortic valve à aorta à body

A. The left ventricle contracts and blood flows along the aorta to the body B. The blood flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. C. Oxygenated blood flows along the pulmonary veins into the left atrium D. The blood passes through the mitral valve into the left ventricle E. The left atrium contracts F. Deoxygenated blood flows from the inferior and superior vena cava into the right atrium. G. The deoxygenated blood picks up oxygen H. The right atrium contracts I. The right ventricle contracts and blood flows along the pulmonary artery to the lungs
