The left ventricle (LV) pumps the oxygen-rich blood through the aortic valve (AoV) into the aorta (Ao), the main artery that takes oxygen-rich blood out to the rest of the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -The heart pumps blood through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. From the left ventricle, the blood flows through the aortic valve to the rest of your body.
