Question 1 Report

Which of the following statements is not correct about the mammalian heart?
Answer Details
The statement "blood passes from of blood into the right ventricle to the left auricle through the aorta" is not correct about the mammalian heart. This statement is incorrect because the aorta is a large artery that carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle of the heart to the rest of the body, while the blood passes from the right ventricle to the left atrium through the pulmonary vein. The tricuspid valve prevents the backflow of blood into the right atrium, not the left atrium. The walls of the ventricles are thicker than those of the atria because they have to pump blood to the rest of the body.
