Aortic valve
B
Tricuspid valve
C
Pulmonary valve
D
Mitral valve
Explanation:

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-2: -tricuspid valve: located between the right atrium and the right ventricle.

Detailed explanation-3: -Pulmonary Valve (or Pulmonic Valve) Separates the right ventricle from the pulmonary artery. Opens to allow blood to be pumped from the right ventricle to the lungs (through the pulmonary artery) where it will receive oxygen.
