Q

After passing through the pulmonary artery, where does the deoxygenated blood go?

A

Lungs. To discard CO2 and picks up O2 once again.

17
Q

After the blood becomes oxygenated by the lungs, where does it go?

A

Pulmonary vein

18
Q

What comes after the pulmonary VEIN?

A

Left atrium

19
Q

Blood flows from the left atrium through this passage with “2 flaps” before reaching the right ventricles.

A

Bicuspid valve/Mitral valve

20
Q

After the Bicuspid valve?

A

Left ventricle

21
Q

Before reaching the aortic arch it must go through?

A

Aortic semilunar valve

22
Q

The “big aorta” in which blood goes through right after passing through the aortic semilunar valve

A

Aortic arch

23
Q

After the aortic arch? what now?

A

It is now distributed to the whole systemic circulation. duh! charot
