Answer:
B. Blood in the left ventricle is deoxygenated.
Explanation:
Human heart consists of four chambers namely: right atrium, right ventricle, left atrium and left ventricle. These chambers work hand in hand to perform the function of circulating blood throughout the body.
- The RIGHT ATRIUM receives deoxygenated blood from the heart and passes it to the RIGHT VENTRICLE, which pumps it to the lungs in order to be oxygenated.
- The LEFT ATRIUM receives oxygenated blood from the lungs and passes it to the LEFT VENTRICLE, which pumps it into the body.
- Also, the pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood into the lungs for oxygenation while the pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from the lungs
Based on the above explanation of the right & left atria and the right & left ventricles, it is FALSE that the blood in the left ventricle is deoxygenated. It is rather oxygenated.
