Cardiovascular
Project

Your veins take blood to your heart. The blood being taken to your heart is not oxygenated (it doesn’t have oxygen in it).
The blood enters the heart through the right atrium.
Then, the blood enters the right ventricle through a valve.
Valves build pressure to keep blood flowing in one direction.
Next, the right ventricle pumps th blood to the pulmonary artery.
The pulmonary artery leads to the lungs, where blood picks up oxygen.
After getting oxygen, the blood travels through the pulmonary veins to return to the heart.
The blood enters the heart through the left atrium.
From the left atrium, blood goes to the left ventricle, where the blood gets a push to the aorta.
From the aorta, blood travels to other parts of the body through arteries.
Tiny blood vessels called capillaries allow the exchange of gasses through arteries and veins.
After the muscles use up oxygen, blood carries the deoxygenated blood back to the heart through veins.
And the process repeats for as long as you live.
