Understanding the path of blood through your heart and body

This is important! And challenging, so hold tight and keep trying!

The heart has four chambers (or rooms). You need to remember that the flow of blood is very logical -- as the blood enters the heart after its long and treacherous journey through the body, it does not have much oxygen left. It needs to enter the lungs to acquire more oxygen! It then enters the heart and gets one push pump out into the body to travel around again.
