Question

lo 3.7 - 3.8. systemic arteries transport oxygenated blood from the left ventricle of the heart to the ____________. left atrium right atrium upper body only rest of the body lungs only

Explanation:

Systemic circulation is the part of the cardiovascular system which transports oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body, and returns deoxygenated blood back to the heart. Systemic arteries carry oxygenated blood from the left ventricle of the heart. The left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs (pulmonary circulation). The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the body. The statement about "upper body only" is incorrect as systemic arteries supply the whole body (except lungs which are part of pulmonary circulation). "Lungs only" is related to pulmonary arteries (which carry deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs). So systemic arteries carry blood to the rest of the body (excluding lungs as that's pulmonary circuit).

Answer:

Rest of the body
