    Study Notes

    Heart Anatomy Labels

    • Pulmonary Veins: Vessels that carry oxygenated blood from the lungs back to the heart, specifically entering the left atrium.

    • Left Ventricle: The chamber of the heart that pumps oxygen-rich blood to the body; has the thickest walls to generate high pressure.

    • Right Ventricle: The chamber responsible for pumping deoxygenated blood into the lungs for oxygenation; receives blood from the right atrium.

    • Inferior Vena Cava: A large vein that carries deoxygenated blood from the lower body back to the heart, entering the right atrium.

    • Superior Vena Cava: A major vein that returns deoxygenated blood from the upper body to the right atrium.

    • Right Atrium: The chamber that receives deoxygenated blood from the body via the superior and inferior vena cavae before sending it to the right ventricle.

    • Pulmonary Arteries: Vessels that carry deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs for oxygenation.

    • Left Atrium: The chamber that receives oxygenated blood from the pulmonary veins and sends it to the left ventricle.

    • Aorta: The largest artery in the body, it carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle to the rest of the body.
