Solution

The correct options are
A
Left atrium

D
Veins

The heart consists of four chambers in which blood flows. Deoxygentaed blood enters the right atrium and passes through the right ventricle. The right ventricle pumps the blood to the lungs where it becomes oxygenated. The oxygenated blood is brought back to the heart by the pulmonary veins which enter the left atrium. The left ventricle receives oxygenated blood from the left atrium via the mitral valve and pumps it through the aorta via the aortic valve, into the systemic circulation.

Q. Which of the following statement(s) wrong with regard to heart?
A. Left atrium receives deoxygenated blood from different parts of the body while right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the lungs.
B. Right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from different body parts while right ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs.
C. Left atrium receives oxygenated blood from lungs while left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood to different parts of the body.
D. Pulmonary vein carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs and pulmonary artery brings oxygenated blood towards the heart.

Q. Read the statements and select the option which best describes the process that occurs during systematic circulation.
(i) The left atrium receives the oxygenated blood through the pulmonary veins. The left ventricle pumps the blood through the aorta to various parts and the de-oxygenated blood reaches right atrium.
(ii) The left atrium receives the oxygenated blood through pulmonary veins and pumps the blood through the aorta to various parts and the de-oxygenated blood reaches the right atrium.
(iii) The left atrium receives de-oxygenated blood and pumps into left ventricles which in turn pumps into pulmonary artery for oxygenation.
(iv) The right atrium receives the de-oxygenated blood and pumps into pulmonary artery for oxygenation.
