pulmonary artery: The pulmonary artery delivers unoxygenated blood to the lungs and then it’s taken through the pulmonary VEINS back to the heart.

pulmonary vein, bicuspid valve: The blood enters on the left side of the heart through the PULMONARY VEIN and enters the left atrium. It then passes through the BICUSPID VALVE to enter the left ventricle.
What part of the heart delivers richly oxygenated blood to the body?
Aorta
True or False: Pulmonary veins take unoxygenated blood away from the heart.
False: The pulmonary artery takes unoxygenated blood away from the heart to the lungs to become oxygenated and then back through the pulmonary vein.
True or False: Blood flows in the following sequence in the heart: Superior vena cava/Inferior vena cava, right atrium, tricuspid valve, right ventricle, pulmonic valve, pulmonary artery, lungs, pulmonary veins, left atrium, bicuspid valve, left ventricle, aortic valve, aorta
