Solution

The correct option is B

Carbon dioxide rich blood is sent to the heart by the lungs.


Oxygenated blood flows only in the left side of the heart, and deoxygenated blood, which is also carbon dioxide rich, flows through the right side of the heart. Oxygenated blood reaches the heart from the lungs, which is then pumped to the body organs. Deoxygenated blood comes to the heart from all parts of the body, to be pumped to the lungs for oxygenation and removal of carbon dioxide.
