Blood leaving the the right ventricle through the pulmonary semilunar valve moves toward the lungs. Blood leaving the left ventricle though the aortic semilunar valve moves toward every where but the lungs.
Damage to the left semilunar valve would interfere with blood flow to the aorta.
right atrium --> tricuspid valve --> right ventricle --> pulmonary semilunar valve --> pulmonary arteries --> lungs --> pulmonary veins --> left atrium --> bicuspid valve --> left ventricle --> aortic semilunar valve --> aorta --> arteries and capillaries --> cells --> venules, veins, vena cava --> right atrium -->thoughtfulobserver
The pulmonic valve, a semilunar valve located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary trunk, opens to allow blood to flow into the pulmonary artery. This valve opens when the pressure in the right ventricle is greater than the pressure in the pulmonary artery, allowing blood to be pumped from the heart to the lungs for oxygenation.
The valve located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary trunk is the pulmonary semilunar valve, also known as the pulmonic valve. This valve prevents the backflow of blood from the pulmonary trunk into the right ventricle during the heart's pumping cycle.
Atrioventricular valves prevent backwards flow of blood inside the heart, i.e. flow from the ventricles back to the atria. Semilunar valves prevent backwards flow of blood into the heart from the aorta (left ventricle) or the pulmonary arteries (right ventricle).

pulmonary semilunar valve
Semilunar valves are found throughout the body in veins, as they prevent backflow of deoxygenated blood. In the heart, there are two semilunar valves, the pulmonary semilunar valve and the aortic semilunar valve. The pulmonary semilunar valve is the gateway to the pulmonary artery, which then goes to the lungs. The aortic semilunar valve is the gateway to the aorta, which distributes oxygenated blood to the rest of the body.
The blood flows through the aorta after exiting the left ventricle through the aortic valve.
After blood leaves the right ventricle via the semilunar valve it exits out the pulmonary artery to the lungs where it picks up oxygen.
Venous blood from body tissues is deoxygenated. It flows into the heart at the right atrium, through the tricuspid valve, and into the right atrium. Then it gets pumped to the lungs through the pulmonary semilunar valve. It becomes oxygenated in the lungs, then goes to the left atrium of the heart where it passes through the bicuspid valve and then is pumped through the Aortic semilunar valve where it becomes arterial blood.
t the places where blood leaves via the aorta and pulmonary arteries
through seminular valve at the time of ventricle contaraction blood from right ventricle is pumped to lungs.
When the ventricles contract, the right ventricle pushes blood up through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary arteries via the pulmonary trunk, and the left ventricle pushes blood up through the aortic semilunar valve into the Aorta.
The heart pumps blood from the left ventricle through the aortic semilunar valve into the Aorta.
Starting in the right atrium, blood then goes through tricuspid valve into the right ventricle, then through the semilunar valve into the left & right pulmonary arteries, to the lungs for oxygen. The oxygenated blood is then returned to the heart by way of the pulmonary veins, into the left atrium through the mitral valve, into the left ventricle, then through the aortic semilunar valve, in which oxygenated blood circulates throughout the body.
Blood passes through the bicuspid valve and enters the left ventricle.
