Explanation
Correct blood vessel pathways to and from liver and lungs Steps: - Determine vessels to lungs: deoxygenated blood arrives via pulmonary artery from heart's right ventricle. - Determine vessels from lungs: oxygenated blood leaves via pulmonary veins to heart's left atrium. - Determine vessels to liver: oxygenated blood via hepatic artery from heart; nutrient blood via portal vein, but hepatic artery is direct systemic supply. - Determine vessels from liver: deoxygenated blood leaves via hepatic veins to inferior vena cava and heart. - Compare tables to find accurate pairings for liver (hepatic artery to, hepatic vein from) and lungs (pulmonary artery to, pulmonary vein from). Why C is correct: - Matches anatomical definition of systemic and pulmonary circulations, with hepatic artery delivering arterial blood to liver and hepatic veins draining it, plus pulmonary artery to lungs and veins returning oxygenated blood. Why the others are wrong: - A: Lists pulmonary artery as blood from lungs, reversing correct pulmonary vein role. - B: Incorrectly pairs pulmonary vein as blood from heart, confusing systemic with pulmonary flow. - D: Misaligns columns, swapping …
