Enters the heart from the lungs and goes out to the body
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The oxygenated blood is brought back to the heart by the pulmonary veins which enter the left atrium. From the left atrium blood flows into the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps the blood to the aorta which will distribute the oxygenated blood to all parts of the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -Oxygen-poor blood from the body enters your heart through two large veins called the superior and inferior vena cava. The blood enters the heart’s right atrium and is pumped to your right ventricle, which in turn pumps the blood to your lungs.

Detailed explanation-3: -Blood flows through a network of vessels called the circulatory system. When blood returns to your heart, it flows to your lungs to receive oxygen. Then your heart pumps that blood out to the rest of your body, and the process begins again.

Detailed explanation-4: -The left atrium receives oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and pumps it to the left ventricle through the mitral valve.
