Both ventricles pump the same volume, but the left must generate greater:

APosition
BPotential
CPressure
DPorosity
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Pressure
1. Volume pumped per beat matches on both sides. 2. The systemic circuit offers far more resistance. 3. So the left ventricle generates greater pressure. _Source: OpenStax Anatomy and Physiology 2e, Chapter 19, The Cardiovascular System: The Heart._
