The Pathway of Blood through the Heart
Starting with DEOXYGENATED BLOOD at the RIGHT ATRIUM, detail the pathway of
blood (structures and type of blood) …
Structures
1. Blood moves from the Right Atrium
through the Tricuspid Valve into the
Right Ventricle.
2. Blood moves from the Right Ventricle
through the Pulmonary Valve into the
Pulmonary Artery.
Type of Blood
(Oxygenated or Deoxygenated)
Deoxygenated
Deoxygenated
3. Blood travels through the Pulmonary
Artery into the right and left lungs.
Deoxygenated
4. In the lungs, blood cells drop off
carbon dioxide and pick up oxygen.
Deoxygenated à Oxygenated
5. Blood travels back to the heart
through the Pulmonary Veins, and into
the Left Atrium.
Oxygenated
6. Blood moves from the Left Atrium
through the Mitral Valve into the Left
Ventricle.
Oxygenated
7. Blood moves from the Left Ventricle
through the Aortic Valve into the
Aorta.
Oxygenated
8. Blood travels through the Aorta to the
rest of the body, where it drops off
oxygen and picks up carbon dioxide.
9. Blood travels back to the Right Atrium
of the heart, through the Superior and
Inferior Vena Cava, to start the whole
process again.
