My Blood Trip
Have you ever wondered how your blood travels in your body? Hurry, hurry! I need to pump said the heart sorry said the deoxygenated blood. The inferior vena cava and superior vena cava were all stuck in traffic. Ok the heart said, get in the Right atrium. Oh my gosh they all shouted! We are all squished please heart stop squishing us. “Get ready the tricuspid valve is about to open!” Said the heart. Wee, ouch I fell!! Ahh squished again I am waiting to be taken to the lungs. The pulmonary artery is the only artery that carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs and from the lungs you exhale, you get rid of carbon dioxide gas as waste. We inhale oxygen gets inside our lungs then it will be carried by pulmonary vein to the left atrium and then to the left ventricle. Then the aorta will carry the clean blood to all body parts.
My advice to you is always eat healthy food and keep away from polluted areas .
