Vocaloid:

A) cardiac output by the right ventricle B) cardiac output by the left ventricle C) pulmonary plasma [O2] D) systemic plasma [O2] fetal anatomy really confuses me so I would appreciate any guidance on this problem Please do not comment unless you are making a serious attempt at the problem.

@Tranquility sorry if this isn't your area of expertise but would you mind taking a look at this problem when you get a chance?

Ferredoxin4:

I used to be confused from it as well. So if the ductus arteriosus remains open after birth there would be increased blood flow in lungs & heart and since the ligamentum doesnt close the ductus arteriosus it would lead to mixing of blood and congestive heart failure. To decide the validity for A &B, you would want to know the location of the ductus arteriosus. In PDA blood from the aorta and pulm artery mix, so I wouldn't say the left ventricle has much to do with PDA (B). I'm sorry but I'm not familiar with the concepts presented in option C and D
