where do the ventricles pump blood to in the body
Ventricle (heart) In a four-chambered heart, such as that in humans, there are two ventricles that operate in a double circulatory system: the right ventricle pumps blood into the pulmonary circulation to the lungs, and the left ventricle pumps blood into the systemic circulation through the aorta.
Cerebellar tentorium It covers the top of the cerebellum, and supports the occipital lobes of the brain.
Small intestine Absorption of the majority of nutrients takes place in the jejunum, with the following notable exceptions:
Pulse Pressure waves generated by the heart in systole move the arterial walls. Forward movement of blood occurs when the boundaries are pliable and compliant. These properties form enough to create a palpable pressure wave.
Small intestine Food from the stomach is allowed into the duodenum through the pylorus by a muscle called the pyloric sphincter.
Vein Veins are blood vessels that carry blood toward the heart. Most veins carry deoxygenated blood from the tissues back to the heart; exceptions are the pulmonary and umbilical veins, both of which carry oxygenated blood to the heart. In contrast to veins, arteries carry blood away from the heart.
