Question
Chapter 48.3, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The vessel or vessels, which lead from the mammalian heart, carrying completely oxygenated blood.
Introduction: Heart is the “muscular organ” which is located in the thoracic cavity floored by the diaphragm. It pumps the blood and fulfills the requirement of various body systems by transporting oxygen and other substances. The human heart is differentiated into four chambers, two auricles and two ventricles.

Trace the flow of blood through a mammalian heart, naming the four chambers and their valves, and explaining where the blood entering each atrium comes from and where blood leaving each ventricle goes. When the ventricles contract, what prevents blood from reen-tering the atria? What factors cause blood to move forward at high pressure in the aorta?
