Question
what does the right ventricle do with the blood it receives?
pumps it to the lungs
pumps it to the right atrium
pumps it to the rest of the body
pumps it to the left atrium
The right ventricle receives de - oxygenated blood from the right atrium. Its function is to pump this de - oxygenated blood to the lungs for oxygenation. The left ventricle pumps blood to the rest of the body. Blood flows from the right atrium to the right ventricle, not the other way around. And blood does not flow from the right ventricle to the left atrium directly.
