HUMAN NUTRITION

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: -There are four chambers: the left atrium and right atrium (upper chambers), and the left ventricle and right ventricle (lower chambers). The right side of your heart collects blood on its return from the rest of your body.

Detailed explanation-3: -The upper chambers, the right and left atria, receive incoming blood. The lower chambers, the more muscular right and left ventricles, pump blood out of the heart.

Detailed explanation-4: -Your heart pumps blood around the body all the time-about five litres (eight pints) of it-and this is called circulation. Your heart, blood and blood vessels together make up your cardiovascular system (or heart and circulatory system).
