Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The tricuspid valve allows oxygen-poor blood to flow forward from the right atrium to the right ventricle. The right ventricle pumps oxygen-poor blood through the pulmonary valve.
Detailed explanation-2: -Oxygen-rich blood flows from the lungs back into the left atrium (LA), or the left upper chamber of the heart, through four pulmonary veins. Oxygen-rich blood then flows through the mitral valve (MV) into the left ventricle (LV), or the left lower chamber.
Detailed explanation-3: -Your pulmonary arteries carry blood from your heart to your lungs. They’re the only arteries in your body that carry oxygen-poor (deoxygenated) blood.
