Deoxygenated (low in o2, high in co2) blood enters the rt. Way of the superior and inferior vena cava. Atria until the tricuspid valve opens up and blood. Ventricle fills with blood until the pulmonary semilunar valve. Blood enters the pulmonary artery and takes deoxygenated blood to the. 5- in the lungs blood picks up well needed oxygen (o2) Oxygenated blood (high in o2) is taken back to the heart via the. Blood enters the left atria from the pulmonary veins. Blood fills up the left atria until the bicuspid valve (mitral valve) Left ventricle fills with blood until the aortic semilunar valve opens. 10- from the aorta oxygenated blood will flow through the arterial. System to deliver needed oxygen and nutrients to body cells. 11- first organ to receive fresh oxygenated blood from the aorta is the heart. Descending aorta comes down behind the heart and forms the.
