Detailed explanation-1: -Oxygen-rich blood flows from the lungs back into the left atrium (LA), or the left upper chamber of the heart, through four pulmonary veins. Oxygen-rich blood then flows through the mitral valve (MV) into the left ventricle (LV), or the left lower chamber.
Detailed explanation-2: -Oxygenated blood is found in the left side ( left atrium and left ventricle) of the heart.
Detailed explanation-3: -Thus the right side of the heart carries deoxygenated blood and the left side of the heart carries oxygenated blood.
Detailed explanation-4: -The right side of your heart collects blood on its return from the rest of your body. The blood entering the right side of your heart is low in oxygen. Your heart pumps the blood from the right side of your heart to your lungs so it can receive more oxygen.
