The pumping chamber of the heart that sends blood to the body is:

Answer: Left ventricle.

  • A Right atrium
  • B Right ventricle
  • C Left atrium
  • D Left ventricle

Correct answer: D. Left ventricle

Explanation: The left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood to the body via the aorta (systemic circulation). It has the thickest walls.

ECG: The Three Key WavesP wave(atrial depol.)QRS complex(ventricular depol.)T wave(ventricular repol.)QRS is the tallest spike - ventricles have far more muscle mass than the atria

A single ECG cycle: the P wave marks atrial depolarisation (contraction signal), the large QRS complex marks ventricular depolarisation, and the T wave marks ventricular repolarisation (recovery) before the next cycle begins.

Concept context

Blood, lymph, the heart, the cardiac cycle, blood pressure, and ECG. High NEET weightage.
