The heart does not specifically pump to any organ, it pumps blood threw the circulatory system.

The "Pulmonary side" of the cardiac circulation is the "right" side of the heart which pumps blood TO the lungs. Therefore all the parts of the heart which are on the right side would be considered the answer.

What would happen if a valve in the heart stopped working properly?

One result could be heart failure, which despite the sound of it is not an acute sudden and complete termination of heart function. If the 'left heart' fails, the part of the heart that specializes in moving blood from the lungs to the body, then there is usually a build-up over time of fluid in the lungs. If the 'right heart' fails, the part of the heart that moves blood from the body to the lungs for oxygenation, then there may be edema (swelling) in the body's extremities.

How does the cardiovascular and respitorary systems react with each other?

There are many tiny blood vessels in the lungs called capillaries and these have thin membranes through which oxygen can flow from the lungs into the blood. They also exchange carbon dioxide which you exhale. The heart carries carbon dioxide rich blood to the lungs where it is expelled and oxygen is absorbed into the blood when you inhale and that oxygen rich blood goes back to the heart along a different artery than the one carrying the carbon dioxide rich blood.
