A Correct answer
Explanation

This is the correct answer. The right ventricle pumps blood into the pulmonary trunk, which divides into the pulmonary arteries going to the lungs; then blood is returned to the left atrium from the lungs through the pulmonary veins. This is called the pulmonary circulation. Hence, this part is not involved.
