Question
Which of these statements concerning the normal pathway of blood flow is NOT correct?Multiple ChoiceBlood flows from the coronary sinus to the right atrium.Blood flows from the pulmonary veins to the right atrium.Blood flows from the pulmonary arteries to the lungs.Blood flows from the aorta to all parts of the body.Neither ""Blood flows from the pulmonary veins to the right atrium."" and ""Blood flows from the coronary sinus to the right atrium."" is correct.
Solution
The statement that is NOT correct concerning the normal pathway of blood flow is "Blood flows from the pulmonary veins to the right atrium."
In the normal pathway of blood flow, blood flows from the pulmonary veins to the left atrium, not the right atrium. The pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from the lungs back to the heart, which is received by the left atrium and then pumped into the left ventricle. From the left ventricle, the blood is pumped into the aorta and then to all parts of the body.
The other statements are correct. Blood does flow from the coronary sinus to the right atrium, from the pulmonary arteries to the lungs, and from the aorta to all parts of the body.
