Detailed explanation-1: -The heart consists of four chambers in which blood flows. 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.

Detailed explanation-2: -Deoxygenated blood from the lower half of the body enters the heart from the inferior vena cava while deoxygenated blood from the upper body is delivered to the heart via the superior vena cava. Both the superior vena cava and inferior vena cava empty blood into the right atrium.

Detailed explanation-3: -The right ventricle receives deoxygenated blood from the right atrium, then pumps the blood along to the lungs to get oxygen. The left ventricle receives oxygenated blood from the left atrium, then sends it on to the aorta.

Detailed explanation-4: -The deoxygenated blood is also known as the venous blood. The deoxygenated blood is carried from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs through the pulmonary artery.-In mammals, the heart is four-chambered, consisting of two ventricles (left and right) and two atria (left and right).

Detailed explanation-5: -The top chambers of the heart are called the left atrium and right atrium. The bottom chambers of the heart are the left ventricle and right ventricle, which have thicker walls. The right atrium receives blood from the veins that has already circulated through the body and pumps it over to the right ventricle.
