The Inferior vena cava - just like the Superior vena cava -, returns blood to the heart.
When blood is returning to the heart, that blood is already circulated in the body, therefore it is already downloaded the oxygen to the body tissues, and picked up the carbon dioxide from them.
From the vena cava (superior and inferior), the blood enters the heart (right atrium), is pumped into the right ventricle, and then pumped into the lungs (through the Pulmonary Arteries), where carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen.
So, the blood in the vena cava is deoxygenated.
The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood, then the blood moves into the right ventricle. So both of them receive deoxygenated blood. Once the blood returns from the lungs it is oxygenated and comes into the heart through the pulmonary veins into the left atrium then to the left ventricle then out to the body.
Deoxygenated blood travels away from the heart to the lungs, where it picks up oxygen and becomes oxygenated.
The blood in the systemic circulation system is oxygenated. It carries oxygen from the lungs to the rest of the body's tissues and organs.
Deoxygenated blood contains carbon dioxide, waste products, and a lower concentration of oxygen compared to oxygenated blood. It returns to the heart and lungs to pick up oxygen and get rid of carbon dioxide.
Deoxygenated blood is blood that has low levels of oxygen and high levels of carbon dioxide. It is typically darker in color compared to oxygenated blood. Deoxygenated blood circulates through the body to deliver carbon dioxide to the lungs for removal.
Yes capillaries carry oxygenated blood :D
a drop of blood in the inferior vena cavsa is oxygen-rich or oxygen-poor?
The right heart chambers (atrium and ventricle) contain deoxygenated blood. The left heart chambers contain oxygenated blood, since this blood has already been through the pulmonary system.
De-Oxygenated blood. The pulmonary artery is one of the only arteries that carry de-oxygenated blood.
Not usually, the veins contain deoxygenated blood and the arteries contain oxygenated blood. The exception is the pulmonary vein which contains oxygenated blood from the lungs and into the heart.

Oxygenated
well you have two atria the right atrium and left atrium but i think the right atrium has deoxygenated blood and the left atrium has oxygenated blood.
The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood, then the blood moves into the right ventricle. So both of them receive deoxygenated blood. Once the blood returns from the lungs it is oxygenated and comes into the heart through the pulmonary veins into the left atrium then to the left ventricle then out to the body.
Deoxygenated blood is a darker red color compared to oxygenated blood. This is because of the lower levels of oxygen and higher levels of carbon dioxide present in deoxygenated blood.
the oxygenated and deoxygenated blood would mix.
The veins. The Inferior and Superior Vena Cavae carry deoxygenated blood towards the heart from the body whereas the pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood.
