Detailed explanation-1: -The left ventricle (LV) pumps the oxygen-rich blood through the aortic valve (AoV) into the aorta (Ao), the main artery that takes oxygen-rich blood out to the rest of the body.
Detailed explanation-2: -Your main pulmonary artery and your aorta are the two great vessels that carry blood out of your heart. A crucial difference is that your pulmonary artery carries oxygen-poor (deoxygenated) blood, while your aorta carries oxygen-rich (oxygenated) blood.
Detailed explanation-3: -The heart pumps deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs and at the same time pumps oxygenated blood from the left ventricle into the aorta.
Detailed explanation-4: -Vein-One of the blood vessels that returns blood from various parts of the body to the heart. Usually carries deoxygenated blood.
Detailed explanation-5: -Oxygenated blood has a high partial pressure of oxygen to deliver oxygen to the metabolizing tissues. Deoxygenated blood, on the other hand, has a low partial pressure of oxygen. The quantity of oxygen carried by each kind of blood is the primary distinction between oxygenated and deoxygenated blood.
