The heart appears to be divided in half, with two separate sections for receiving and pumping blood. Where does each half receive blood? to where does each half pump blood?

Answer:

Please read below:

Step-by-step explanation:

The heart has four chambers, two on the right and two on the left. The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the body and pumps it into the right ventricle.

The right ventricle then pumps the deoxygenated blood into the lungs, where it receives oxygen and gets rid of carbon dioxide.

Oxygenated blood then returns to the left atrium from the lungs, which pumps it into the left ventricle. The left ventricle then pumps the oxygenated blood to the rest of the body.
