A
venae cavae
B
pulmonary vein
C
pulmonary trunk and arteries
D
aorta
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -What is the vena cava? 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-3: -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.
