The right side of the heart receives deoxygenated blood from the body and pumps it to the lungs for oxygenation. The liver and kidneys have their own blood supply systems not directly related to the primary function of the right - side of the heart. The left side of the heart pumps oxygenated blood to the body. And oxygen - rich blood is not pumped to the lungs (the lungs receive deoxygenated blood for oxygenation).
