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: -Your pulmonary arteries are located in your chest cavity. Your main pulmonary artery (pulmonary trunk) connects to your right ventricle at your pulmonary valve at the front of the heart. From there, it leaves your heart and travels upward along the left side of your ascending aorta.
Detailed explanation-3: -Blood leaving the right ventricle only goes to go to the lungs (Pulmonary Circulation).
Detailed explanation-4: -The right ventricle pumps oxygen-poor blood into the pulmonary artery, which carries that blood into the lungs. The lower-left chamber (the left ventricle) pumps oxygen-rich blood into the aorta, which carries that blood to the rest of the body.
