Question

Place the parts of the circulatory system in the correct order to describe the flow of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood in the human body.

Answer 1

deOxygenated blood, superior vena cava,right atrium, right ventricle, pulmonary artery, lungs

oxygenated blood, Lungs, Pulmonary veins, left atrium, left ventricle, aorta

Answer 2

The oxygenated blood then leaves the lungs through pulmonary veins, which return it to the left heart, completing the pulmonary cycle. This blood then enters the left atrium, which pumps it through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. From the left ventricle, the blood passes through the aortic valve to the aorta.

Deoxygenated blood leaves through the right ventricle through the pulmonary artery. From the right atrium, the blood is pumped through the tricuspid valve (or right atrioventricular valve), into the right ventricle.
