which gets pumped into the right ventricle which pumps it through the semi-lunar valve and through to the pulmonary artery. The blood flow then goes to the lungs where it is oxygenised‚ the newly oxygenised blood re-enters the heart via the pulmonary vein into the left atrium‚ the blood then goes through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. From here it is pumped by a strong muscle and straight through the aorta and around the body. Pulmonary System = includes heart and lungs it carries De-oxygenated
