Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Oxygen-rich blood travels from your lungs to your left atrium through large veins called pulmonary veins . Your mitral valve opens to send blood from your left atrium to your left ventricle.
Detailed explanation-2: -From the left atrium blood flows into the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps the blood to the aorta which will distribute the oxygenated blood to all parts of the body.
Detailed explanation-3: -This blood passes through the bicuspid valve or mitral valve (the atrioventricular valve on the left side of the heart) to the left ventricle where the blood is pumped out through aorta, the major artery of the body, taking oxygenated blood to the organs and muscles of the body.
