Solution

The correct option is B right; oxygen-rich
Pulmonary circulation starts from the right ventricle, which sends the blood into the pulmonary artery to reach lungs. From lungs, oxygenated blood returns to the left auricle of the heart through pulmonary veins.
So, the correct option is 'right; oxygen-rich'.
