Human Heart and Lung Anatomy Quiz

Left Ventricle = Pumps oxygenated blood to the entire body Mitral Valve = Prevents backflow into the left atrium SA Node = Initiates the heartbeat Pulmonary Veins = Receives oxygenated blood from the lungs Aorta = Main artery leaving the heart Tricuspid Valve = Prevents backflow into the right atrium Pulmonary Artery = Carries oxygen-poor blood to the lungs Right Atrium = Receives oxygen-poor blood from the body Left Atrium = Receives oxygenated blood from the lungs Right Ventricle = Pumps oxygen-poor blood to the lungs
