List the steps of the mammalian circulatory process in a human body.
The deoxygenated blood enters the heart through the SVC and the IVC
Then, the blood travels to the right atrium and into the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve
After, it goes through the pulmonary valve and is sent to the lungs through the pulmonary arteries
In the lungs, the capillaries facilitate the gas exchange, making the blood freshly oxygenated
The freshly oxygenated blood travels through the pulmonary veins and enters back into the heart
Then, the blood travels to the left atrium and into the left ventricle through the mitral valve
Lastly, it goes through the aortic valve and leaves the heart through the aorta.
