Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The passage of blood from left atrium to body is
A
left atrium-left ventricle-aorta-body
B
left atrium-right ventricle-aorta-body
C
left atrium-left ventricle-pulmonary artery-body
D
left atrium-left ventricle-pulmonary vein-body
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -From the left atrium blood flows into the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps the blood to the aorta which will distribute the oxygenated blood to all parts of the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Systemic circulation carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle, through the arteries, to the capillaries in the tissues of the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -When your left ventricle is full it squeezes, which closes your mitral valve and opens your aortic valve. Your heart sends blood through your aortic valve to your aorta, where it flows to the rest of your body.

Detailed explanation-4: -Blood comes into the right atrium from the body, moves into the right ventricle and is pushed into the pulmonary arteries in the lungs. After picking up oxygen, the blood travels back to the heart through the pulmonary veins into the left atrium, to the left ventricle and out to the body’s tissues through the aorta.

Detailed explanation-5: -The right ventricle pumps the low-oxygen blood to the lungs to pick up a fresh supply of oxygen. The left atrium receives to high-oxygen blood from the lungs and pumps it to the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps the high-oxygen blood to the rest of the body.
