What is the purpose of a valve?
prevents backflow of blood
provides the heart tissue with oxygen
provides electrical stimulation
oxygenates the blood
The pumping of blood from the body to the lungs and back to the heart for the purpose of oxgenating the blood is called (a) circulation.
(a) circulation pumps oxygen-rich blood to the body and returns deoxygenated blood back to the heart.

pulmonary artery
pulmonary vein
aorta
vena cava
renal artery
