Detailed explanation-2: -Superior vena cava carries oxygenated blood from the upper half of the body to the right atrium.
Detailed explanation-3: -The inferior and superior vena cava bring oxygen-poor blood from the body into the right atrium. The pulmonary artery carries oxygen-poor blood from the right ventricle into the lungs, where oxygen enters the bloodstream. The pulmonary veins bring oxygen-rich blood to the left atrium.
