The answer before this was totally wrong, I feel bad if anyone took it seriously for an A&P class but it provided a good outline for this,
(Systemic Circuit)
The aorta - oxygenated blood leaves the left ventricle through the aortic valve and flows to the rest of the body through the aorta.
The superior/inferiorvena cava - deoxygenated blood returns from our organs, except the lungs
(Pulmonary Circuit)
The pulmonary trunk - takes deoxygenated blood out of the right ventricle through the semilunar valve(pulmonary valve), to the lungs through left/right pulmonary arteries..
The pulmonary veins - brings oxygenated blood to the left atrium of the heart from the lungs
