Question
match the location with the correct circulation pulmonary veins inferior vena cava right atrium left ventricle pulmonary arteries pulmonary circulation systemic circulation systemic circulation systemic circulation pulmonary circulation
Brief Explanations
- Pulmonary veins: Carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium, which is part of pulmonary circulation.
- Inferior vena cava: Brings de - oxygenated blood from the lower body to the right atrium. This is part of systemic circulation as it is returning blood from the body tissues (not the lungs).
- Right atrium: Receives de - oxygenated blood from the body (via superior and inferior vena cava) and pumps it to the right ventricle for pulmonary circulation. But its main role in receiving blood from the body makes it part of systemic circulation.
- Left ventricle: Pumps oxygenated blood to the entire body (except the lungs) through the aorta. This is systemic circulation.
- Pulmonary arteries: Carry de - oxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs. This is pulmonary circulation.
