The vena cavae collect blood from the systemic circulation. They deliver this deoxygenated blood to the right atrium.

What happens after deoxygenated blood flows from inferior and superior vena cavae into the right atrium?

After deoxygenated blood flows from the inferior and superior vena cavae into the right atrium, it fills the chamber and triggers the right atrium to contract. This contraction pushes the blood through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. Once the right ventricle is filled, it contracts, sending the blood into the pulmonary arteries via the pulmonary valve, where it travels to the lungs for oxygenation.
