From the right ventricle blood is pushed through this valve
A
Pulmonary valve
B
Mitral valve
C
Aortic valve
D
Tricuspid valve
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Pulmonary Valve (or Pulmonic Valve) Separates the right ventricle from the pulmonary artery. Opens to allow blood to be pumped from the right ventricle to the lungs (through the pulmonary artery) where it will receive oxygen.

Detailed explanation-2: -The pulmonary heart valve separates the right ventricle from the pulmonary artery, which transports deoxygenated blood to the lungs. As deoxygenated blood leaves the right ventricle, it passes through the pulmonary heart valve, which has been closed as the right ventricle was filling.

Detailed explanation-3: -The right ventricle (RV) pumps oxygen-poor blood through the pulmonary valve (PV) into the main pulmonary artery (MPA). From there, the blood flows through the right and left pulmonary arteries into the lungs.

Detailed explanation-4: -When the right ventricle contracts, blood is forced through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary artery. Then it travels to the lungs. In the lungs, the blood receives oxygen then leaves through the pulmonary veins. It returns to the heart and enters the left atrium.
