Solution

The correct option is C Pulmonary artery
As the right ventricle contracts, the tricuspid valve closes and the pulmonary valve opens. The closer of the tricuspid valve prevents blood from backing into the right atrium and the opening of the pulmonary valve allows the blood to flow into the pulmonary artery toward the lungs.
So, the correct answer is 'Pulmonary artery'.
