Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What chamber pumps blood to the body?
A
Right atrium
B
Right ventricle
C
Left atrium
D
Left ventricle
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Oxygen-rich blood then flows through the mitral valve (MV) into the left ventricle (LV), or the left lower chamber. 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-2: -The left atrium receives oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and pumps it to the left ventricle.

Detailed explanation-3: -The lower chambers-the right and left ventricles-pump blood out of your heart.

Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -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.
