Question
drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs.
match the arteries and veins to their functions.
arteries from aorta veins from superior vena cava
veins from inferior vena cava arteries from coronary arteries
supply deoxygenated blood from lower part of the body
supply oxygenated blood to rest of the body excluding lungs
supply oxygenated blood to cardiac muscles
supply deoxygenated blood from upper part of the body
Brief Explanations
- veins from inferior vena cava: The inferior vena cava collects deoxygenated blood from the lower half of the body (abdomen, pelvis, legs) and returns it to the heart. So it matches "supply deoxygenated blood from lower part of the body".
- arteries from aorta: The aorta is the main artery carrying oxygenated blood from the left ventricle of the heart. It branches out to supply oxygenated blood to the entire body except the lungs (which receive blood from the pulmonary artery for oxygenation). Thus, it matches "supply oxygenated blood to rest of the body excluding lungs".
- arteries from coronary arteries: Coronary arteries are responsible for supplying oxygenated blood to the heart muscle (cardiac muscles) itself. So this matches "supply oxygenated blood to cardiac muscles".
- veins from superior vena cava: The superior vena cava collects deoxygenated blood from the upper half of the body (head, neck, arms, chest) and returns it to the heart. Hence, it matches "supply deoxygenated blood from upper part of the body".
