Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The right ventricle pumps the oxygen-(poor blood) to the lungs through the pulmonary valve. The left atrium receives oxygen-(rich blood) from the lungs and pumps it to the left ventricle through the mitral valve. The left ventricle pumps the oxygen-(rich blood) through the aortic valve out to the rest of the body.

Hope this helped!!!
