Chamber on the right side of the heart that recieves blood from the superior and inferior vena cavi, directing it to the right ventricle. image
heart chamber that receives oxygen-depleted blood from the body by way of the vena cava
the right upper chamber of the heart that receives blood from the venae cavae and coronary sinus
The right upper chamber of the heart. The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the body through the vena cava and pumps it into the right ventricle which then sends it to the lungs to be oxygenated.
The upper (or "priming") pumping chamber on the right side of the heart. The right atrium sits above the tricuspid valve and gently forces blood across the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. This actions "primes" the lower pumping chamber to improve efficiency. At the same time, the right atrium provides a temporary storage site for blood returning from the lungs during the time that the right ventricle is actually squeezing.
The right upper chamber of the heart, which receives deoxygenated blood from the systemic venous system.
the right upper chamber of the heart. It receives oxygen-poor blood from the body through the inferior vena cava and the superior vena cava.
Receives oxygen-poor blood from the body and passes it to the right ventricle.
Blood from the body that is low in oxygen flows into the right atrium.
The heart has four chambers. A partial septum separates right and left atria. The right atrium is best developed and receives the sinus venosus. The sinus enters the right atrium through the sinoatrial canal.
The right atrium is one of four chambers (two atria and two ventricles) in the human heart. It receives de-oxygenated blood from the superior and inferior vena cavae and the coronary sinus, and pumps it into the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve.
