(N/A) The flow of blood through the human heart follows a specific pathway:
$1$. De-oxygenated blood from the body enters the $Right \text{ Atrium}$ through the $Vena \text{ Cava}$.
$2$. From the $Right \text{ Atrium}$, blood flows into the $Right \text{ Ventricle}$ through the $Tricuspid \text{ Valve}$.
$3$. The $Right \text{ Ventricle}$ pumps this de-oxygenated blood to the lungs via the $Pulmonary \text{ Artery}$ for oxygenation.
$4$. Oxygenated blood returns from the lungs to the $Left \text{ Atrium}$ through the $Pulmonary \text{ Veins}$.
$5$. From the $Left \text{ Atrium}$, blood flows into the $Left \text{ Ventricle}$ through the $Mitral \text{ Valve}$.
$6$. Finally, the $Left \text{ Ventricle}$ pumps the oxygenated blood into the $Aorta$ to be distributed to the rest of the body.
