Detailed explanation-1: -The superior vena cava and inferior vena cava are very large veins that bring deoxygenated blood to your heart to get oxygen. Your inferior vena cava, your body’s largest vein, carries oxygen-depleted blood back to your heart from the lower part of your body (below your diaphragm).
Detailed explanation-2: -Oxygen-poor blood returns from the body to the heart through the superior vena cava (SVC) and inferior vena cava (IVC), the two main veins that bring blood back to the heart. The oxygen-poor blood enters the right atrium (RA), or the right upper chamber of the heart.
Detailed explanation-3: -The vena cavae are the terminal parts of the extensive venous networks throughout the periphery returning deoxygenated blood to the heart. The inferior vena cava carries deoxygenated blood from the tissues below the diaphragm.
Detailed explanation-4: -The vena cava has two parts: the superior vena cava and the inferior vena cava. The superior vena cava carries blood from the head, neck, arms, and chest. The inferior vena cava carries blood from the legs, feet, and organs in the abdomen and pelvis.
