In the given figure of the heart, which f the marked structures (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) carry oxygenated blood?
1, 2, 3 & 4
1 & 5
1 & 4
3 & 5
Label 1: This is the Aorta, the main artery of the body. It receives oxygen-rich blood from the left ventricle and pumps it out to all systemic organs. Therefore, it carries oxygenated blood.
Label 2: This is the Vena Cava (either superior or inferior, likely superior from position). Large veins return deoxygenated blood from the body to the right side of the heart. (Carries deoxygenated blood).
Label 3: This points to the Pulmonary Trunk/Artery, which carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle towards the lungs. (Carries deoxygenated blood).
Label 4: This points to the Pulmonary Veins. Freshly oxygenated blood from the lungs returns to the left atrium of the heart via these veins. Therefore, it carries oxygenated blood.
Label 5 (Inside Vena Cava 2): The label is within the Vena Cava itself, repeating the deoxygenated blood pathway of 2. It does not clearly indicate pulmonary veins.
