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.

Blood that is oxygen poor?
Venous blood is oxygen poor (in comparison with arterial blood).
What are causes of dark venous blood?
it has more oxygen than arterial blood
How does arterial blood and venous blood differ with regard to their oxygen and carbon dioxide content?
Arterial blood have more Oxygen and venous blood have more CO2 except the pulmonary vien which carry oxygenated blood to the heart for pumping to arteries.
