Chapter 20.4, Problem 15AYP
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The flow of blood from the venae cavae of the heart to the aorta.
Introduction:
Most of the vertebrates have two types of circulation, including pulmonary and systemic circulation in blood vessels. Pulmonary circulation circulates the deoxygenated blood to the lungs to make it oxygenated and then it passes the blood to the heart. Systemic circulation circulates the oxygenated blood from the heart to the other body tissues and then revert the deoxygenated blood back to the heart.

Starting at the venae cavae and ending at the aorta, tracethe flow of blood through the heart.
In a paragraph or using an arrows, trace the blood flow from the superior vena cava, inferior vena cava and coronary sinus entering the heart to the pulmonary circulation and systemic circulation.
If a drop of blood were going from the inferior vena cava to the heart, trace the path of that drop of blood from the vessel (IVC) through the four chambers of the heart, four valves of the heart and the lungs, in the correct sequence, ending with the drop of blood going into the aorta.
