Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The right ventricle pumps the blood and sends the blood through the ____ ?
A
Pulmonary Valve
B
Aortic Valve
C
Tricuspid Valve
D
Bicuspid Valve
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -The blood enters the heart’s right atrium and is pumped to your right ventricle, which in turn pumps the blood to your lungs. The pulmonary artery then carries the oxygen-poor blood from your heart to the lungs.

Detailed explanation-3: -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.

Detailed explanation-4: -Right ventricle: Your heart’s bottom right chamber (right ventricle) pumps oxygen-poor blood through your pulmonary valve into your main pulmonary artery.

Detailed explanation-5: -Pulmonary Valve (or Pulmonic Valve) Opens to allow blood to be pumped from the right ventricle to the lungs (through the pulmonary artery) where it will receive oxygen. Prevents the back flow of blood from the pulmonary artery to the right ventricle.
