Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Consider the following scheme of the circulation of blood in the mammalian heart. 1 Left auricle 2 Right auricle 3 Left ventricle 4 Right ventricle The correct sequence in which blood flows through the mammalian heart is.
A
2,1,4,3
B
1,2,3,4
C
2,4,1,3
D
4,3,2,1
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The correct answer is (b), (d), (a), (c). The heart has two upper chambers-the left and right atriums-and two larger lower chambers-the left and right ventricles. A series of valves act like doorways to control blood flow in and out of these chambers.

Detailed explanation-2: -Blood is pumped from veins of the systemic circuit into the right atrium of the heart, then into the right ventricle. Blood then enters the pulmonary circuit, and is oxygenated by the lungs. From the pulmonary circuit, blood re-enters the heart through the left atrium.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -Blood enters the right atrium and passes through the right ventricle. The right ventricle pumps the blood to the lungs where it becomes oxygenated. The oxygenated blood is brought back to the heart by the pulmonary veins which enter the left atrium. From the left atrium blood flows into the left ventricle.

Detailed explanation-5: -Deoxygenated blood starts to run from the body. It flows into Superior/ Inferior Vena Cava. The flow of deoxygenated blood reaches the right atrium. The atrium will push the flow through the Tricuspid valve. The gore stays in the right ventricle. More items •30-Mar-2022
