Choose your answers in the box below. (6 points)

Blood from the body enters the heart through the two large
veins, superior and inferior vena cava, into (A RIGHT
ATRIUM). Blood then moves into the (B RIGHT
VENTRICLE), and is finally pushed into the lungs through
the (E PULMONARY ARTERY). The blood then picks up
oxygen in the lungs and travels back to the heart and
enters (C LEFT ATRIUM) through the (F PULMONARY
VEIN). Blood then moves to (D LEFT VENTRICLE) and
exits the body through the aorta.
Left Atrium Left Ventricle Pulmonary Artery
Right Atrium Right Ventricle Pulmonary Vein
