Maria, a 16-year-old high school athlete, recently started feeling fatigued during her basketball practices. Her doctor performed several tests and explained that the issue might be related to the way her blood circulates through her heart.
The doctor explained that blood enters the heart through the superior and inferior vena cava. This blood is:
Oxygen-rich and on its way to the lungs
Oxygen-poor and on its way to the left atrium
Oxygen-poor and on its way to the right atrium
Oxygen-rich and on its way to the left ventricle
Maria, a 16-year-old high school athlete, recently started feeling fatigued during her basketball practices.

Tricuspid valve; right ventricle
Mitral valve; left atrium
Pulmonary valve; pulmonary artery
Aortic valve; aorta
