Biology

Answer & explanation:

Aorta - carries oxygen rich blood away from the heart.

The aorta contributes to the stability of blood flow by pumping oxygenated blood through the <u>left</u> <u>ventricle</u>.

Pulmonary artery - transports deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs.

The pulmonary artery originates from the <u>right</u> <u>ventricle</u>, it forks into the right and left pulmonary arteries.

Lower vena cava - carries deoxygenated blood from lower body to the heart.

This is the largest vein in the body, formed by the two iliac veins.

Coronary artery - branches from aorta and provide oxygen to heart muscles.

It also divides into left and right coronary arteries, where each carries oxygenated blood to different regions of the heart.

write the order that blood moves through the heart beginning with the return of blood to the heart from the upper and lower port
statuscvo [17]

Answer: circulatory system

Explanation:

Blood that return from the upper and lower parts of the body are deoxygenated hence they are transported to the heart for oxygenation. therefore blood enter the heart through vena cava ( the main vein) to the right auricles and it goes to the lower part of the heart which is the right ventricles which is more muscular. due to this blood is pumped from the right ventricles through pulmonary vein which pumps blood to the left ventricles through pulmonary artery and it is allowed to the left ventricles in the lower part of the heart and it pumped back in the body through the aorta( the main artery) .
