Detailed explanation-1: -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: -Aortic valve connects your left ventricle and aorta (large artery that carries blood throughout your body). Mitral valve connects your left atrium and left ventricle.
Detailed explanation-3: -The pulmonary veins empty blood into the left atrium. From the left atrium, oxygenated blood enters the left ventricle, the aorta, and enters circulation in the arteries, arterioles and capillaries of the body.
Detailed explanation-4: -Both the superior vena cava and inferior vena cava empty blood into the right atrium. Blood flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle.
