oxygen rich blood checkboxes for a - h
no oxygen blood checkboxes for a - h

Explanation:

First, identify each heart structure:

• A: Aorta (carries oxygen-rich blood from left ventricle to body)
• B: Left atrium (receives oxygen-rich blood from lungs)
• C: Pulmonary veins (carry oxygen-rich blood from lungs to left atrium)
• D: Left ventricle (pumps oxygen-rich blood to aorta)
• E: Right ventricle (pumps deoxygenated blood to lungs)
• F: Right atrium (receives deoxygenated blood from body)
• G: Vena cavae (carry deoxygenated blood from body to right atrium)
• H: Pulmonary artery (carries deoxygenated blood from right ventricle to lungs)

Oxygen-rich blood flows through structures that carry/hold blood after it's oxygenated by the lungs. Deoxygenated blood flows through structures that carry/hold blood returning from the body before it goes to the lungs.

Answer:

Oxygen Rich Blood:

A. Aorta, B. Left atrium, C. Pulmonary veins, D. Left ventricle

No Oxygen Blood:

E. Right ventricle, F. Right atrium, G. Vena cavae, H. Pulmonary artery
