The path which the blood flows through during pulmonary circulation is:
- RA → RV → Pulmonary arteries → Lungs → Pulmonary veins → LA
- LA → LV → Pulmonary veins → Lungs → Pulmonary arteries → RA
- LA → LV → Aorta → Body → Vena Cavae → RA
- RA → RV → Vena Cavae → Body → Aorta → LA

Answer
RA → RV → Pulmonary arteries → Lungs → Pulmonary veins → LA
Reason — Pulmonary circulation is the movement of blood from the heart to the lungs for oxygenation, then back to the heart again. At first, blood flows from the right side of the heart to the lungs and then returns to the left side of the heart (pulmonary circulation).
