You must type the terms EXACTLY as shown below or the program will count them incorrect.Sinoatrial nodeAtrioventricular nodeBundle of HisPurkinje fibers Fill in the blanks from the reading to the best of your ability. Deoxygenated blood enters the right side of you heart through the superior and inferior vena cava into the right atrium.When the right atrium contracts, blood flows and fills the right ventricle.When the blood leaves the right ventricle, it gets pumped through the pulmonary artery to the lungs.
