which chamber of the heart receives oxygenated blood from the lungs?
right atrium
left atrium
right ventricle
left ventricle
The heart has four chambers: right atrium, left atrium, right ventricle, and left ventricle. The pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart. The left atrium is the chamber that receives this oxygenated blood. The right atrium receives de - oxygenated blood from the body. The ventricles (right and left) are responsible for pumping blood out of the heart (the right ventricle pumps de - oxygenated blood to the lungs, and the left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood to the body).
