Solution

The correct option is D Left atrium
The oxygenated blood leaves the lungs through pulmonary veins, which return it to the left heart, completing the pulmonary cycle. This blood then enters the left atrium, which pumps it through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. So, the correct option is 'Left atrium'.
