The right atrium receives de-oxygenated blood from the body through the superior vena cava and inferior vena cava. The tricuspid valve, which separates the right atrium from the right ventricle, opens to allow the de-oxygenated blood collected in the right atrium to flow into the right ventricle.
which of the following structures receives deoxygenated blood from the body via the vena cavae
The right atrium receives blood from the superior and inferior vena cavae, which collects blood from the body.
Definition: the right upper chamber of the heart that receives blood from the venae cavae and coronary sinus
Vena cavae
Yes: the left atrium (receives oxygenated blood from the pulmonary vein) and the right atrium (receives deoxygenated blood from the venae cavae).
Right Atrium
It receives blood from the pulmonary trunk coming out of the right ventricle of the heart.
right atrium
The right atrium pumps the blood it receives from the body (through the superior and inferior vena cavae and the coronary sinus) to the right ventricle which then sends it to the lungs.
The vena cavae collect blood from the systemic circulation. They deliver this deoxygenated blood to the right atrium.
The superior and inferior venae cavae.
Venae cavae are the largest two.Aorta
