ANSWER: D cv


The right atrium receives blood low in oxygen from the superior vena cava, which
cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv


carries blood from the head and upper extremities; the inferior vena cava, which
cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv cv


carries blood fromthe lower body; and the coronary sinus, which is the largest vein
