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: -Deoxygenated blood from the lower half of the body enters the heart from the inferior vena cava while deoxygenated blood from the upper body is delivered to the heart via the superior vena cava. Both the superior vena cava and inferior vena cava empty blood into the right atrium.
Detailed explanation-3: -Veins carry blood back to the heart. In all but one case, veins carry oxygen-poor blood. The exception is the pulmonary veins. They carry oxygen-rich blood from the lungs back to the heart.
