The deoxygenated blood will enter the heart through the superior and inferior vena cava (the main veins), and will flow into the right atrium. When the right atrium contracts, the blood will go through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. When the right ventricle contracts, the blood will go through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary artery. From there it will go to the lungs where it will undergo an oxygen-carbon dioxide gas exchange in the capillaries surrounding the alveoli. The now oxygenated blood will then leave the lungs and go through the pulmonary vein into the left atrium. It will then go through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. When the left ventricle contracts, it will pass through the aortic valve into the aorta. From the artery it will be distributed throughout the body where it will drop off the oxygen and other substances in various cells. The now deoxygenated blood will return to the heart through the superior and inferior vena cava and start the whole process again. Hope this helps!
