Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Why is blood pumped from the Right Ventricle to the Lungs?
A
To drop off nutrients
B
To become oxygenated and collect nutrients
C
To collect waste products
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The right atrium receives blood from the body. This blood is low in oxygen. This is the blood from the veins. The right ventricle pumps the blood from the right atrium into the lungs to pick up oxygen and remove carbon dioxide.

Detailed explanation-2: -The right side of the heart collects oxygen-depleted blood and pumps it to the lungs, through the pulmonary arteries, so that the lungs can refresh the blood with a fresh supply of oxygen.

Detailed explanation-3: -With each heartbeat, the heart sends blood throughout our bodies, carrying oxygen to every cell. After delivering the oxygen, the blood returns to the heart. The heart then sends the blood to the lungs to pick up more oxygen. This cycle repeats over and over again.

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.
