(2) fetal inferior vena cava

(3) hepatic portal vein

Homework Answers

Answer #1

(2) fetal inferior vena cava

(3) hepatic portal vein

(4) pulmonary arteries

Explanation:

- fetal inferior vena cava: Fetal inferior vena cava is the vein but is carries oxygenated blood

- hepatic portal vein: Hepatic portal vein carries deoxygnated blood but nutrient rich as it drains the blood from the intestine to the liver.

- pulmonary arteries: pulmonary arteries arise from the right ventricle and it carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs for oxygenation.
