A man's right side of the heart has _ type of blood.

Correct answer: B. Deoxygenated

  • A. Oxygenated
  • B. Deoxygenated
  • C. Oxygenated and Deoxygenated
  • D. None

Explanation

The left side pumps oxygenated blood (high in oxygen and low in carbon dioxide) to the organs of the body. Deoxygenated blood enters the right atrium from the vena cava. Blood moves into the right ventricle and is then pumped into the pulmonary artery. Therefore, the right side of the heart has deoxygenated blood.
