aorta
anterior vena cava (precava)
posterior vena cava (postcava)
left and right pulmonary arteries
left and right pulmonary veins
right AV valve (tricuspid valve)
left AV valve (bicuspid valve)
pulmonary semilunar valve
aortic semilunar valve
lungs
aorta
aortic arch
Anterior vena cava and posterior vena cava -----> Right atrium ----->Right AV valve(tricuspid valve) ------> Right ventricle -------> pulmonary semilunar valve ------> pulmonary trunk ------> left and right pulmonary arteries ------->lungs ---->-left and right pulmonary veins -------> left atrium------>left AV valve (bicuspid valve) ------->left ventricle -------->aortic semilunar valve -------> Aorta ------>Aortic arch
