Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Your left ventricle pushes blood to the lungs.
A
False
B
True
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The right ventricle pumps the blood from the right atrium into the lungs to pick up oxygen and remove carbon dioxide. The left atrium receives blood from the lungs. This blood is rich in oxygen. The left ventricle pumps the blood from the left atrium out to the body, supplying all organs with oxygen-rich blood.

Detailed explanation-2: -The right ventricle pumps the oxygen-poor blood to the lungs through the pulmonary valve. The left atrium receives oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and pumps it to the left ventricle through the mitral valve. The left ventricle pumps the oxygen-rich blood through the aortic valve out to the rest of the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Oxygen-poor blood from the body enters your heart through two large veins called the superior and inferior vena cava. The blood enters the heart’s right atrium and is pumped to your right ventricle, which in turn pumps the blood to your lungs.

Detailed explanation-5: -On the right side When your right ventricle is full it squeezes, which closes your tricuspid valve and opens your pulmonary valve. Blood flows through your pulmonary artery to your lungs, where it gets oxygen.
