  3. Jul 16, 2024 · Blood flow through the heart involves contractions of the heart muscle to move blood from the right chambers of the heart to the lungs—where it receives oxygen—and then to the left chambers of the heart where it is pumped to the rest of the body through a network of blood vessels.

  4. Sep 14, 2021 · The ventricles serve as the primary pumping chambers of the heart, propelling blood to the lungs or to the rest of the body. There are two distinct but linked circuits in the human circulation called the pulmonary and systemic circuits.
