pulmonary vein
brings oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium
2 of 12
left atrium
recieves oxygenated blood from the lungs via the pulmonary vein
3 of 12
bicuspid valve

between the ventricles and pulmonary artery and vein. valves help keep blood moving forward by shutting behind blood that has passed through to prevent it from flowing back the way it came
