In what order does blood flow through the heart?

Understand the Problem

The question is asking for the sequence of blood flow through the heart, which involves the various chambers and valves as blood circulates through the heart and to the rest of the body.

Answer

Right atrium -> Right ventricle -> Pulmonary artery -> Lungs -> Left atrium -> Left ventricle -> Aorta

The final answer is: Deoxygenated blood enters the right atrium, flows into the right ventricle, goes to the lungs via the pulmonary artery, returns to the left atrium, flows into the left ventricle, and is then pumped into the aorta.

Answer for screen readers

The final answer is: Deoxygenated blood enters the right atrium, flows into the right ventricle, goes to the lungs via the pulmonary artery, returns to the left atrium, flows into the left ventricle, and is then pumped into the aorta.

More Information

The sequence ensures efficient oxygenation of blood and removal of carbon dioxide, vital for body function.

Tips

Common mistakes include confusing the right and left sides of the heart or the order of blood flow, especially between the atria and ventricles.
