Right ventricle

Left ventricle

Detailed explanation-1: -The right ventricle pumps the blood to the lungs where it becomes oxygenated. The oxygenated blood is brought back to the heart by the pulmonary veins which enter the left atrium. From the left atrium blood flows into the left ventricle.
Detailed explanation-2: -Your right ventricle quickly goes into action by forcefully pumping this blood through your pulmonary valve into your pulmonary arteries and out to your lungs.
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: -The right atrium receives oxygen-poor blood from the body and pumps it to the right ventricle.
Detailed explanation-5: -The right ventricle pumps the oxygen-poor blood through the pulmonary valve to the lungs. The left atrium receives oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and pumps it through the mitral valve to the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps the oxygen-rich blood through the aortic valve out to the rest of the body.
