Answer:

b) deoxygenated; pulmonary

Step-by-step explanation:

The right ventricle receives the deoxygenated blood from the right atrium. The deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle is pumped into the lungs for oxygenation via the pulmonary artery.

The pathway of blood circulation from the right ventricle to lungs via pulmonary artery and from lungs to left atrium via pulmonary vein make the pulmonary circulation.
