Detailed explanation-1: -The function of the right atrium is to receive deoxygenated blood from the body. It delivers this to the right ventricle which pumps this blood to the lungs for oxygenation. The function of the left atrium is to receive oxygenated blood from the lungs.
Detailed explanation-2: -The right atrium receives blood from the veins and pumps it to the right ventricle. The right ventricle pumps the blood received from the right atrium to the lungs. The left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs and pumps it to the left ventricle.
Detailed explanation-3: -The blood enters the heart’s right atrium and is pumped to your right ventricle, which in turn pumps the blood to your lungs. The pulmonary artery then carries the oxygen-poor blood from your heart to the lungs. Your lungs add oxygen to your blood.
