Solution

The correct option is A Lungs

  • A.Lungs - a pair of breathing organs located with the chest which remove carbon dioxide from and bring oxygen to the blood. The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs.
  • B.Left auricle - a small, muscular pouch at the upper corner of the left atrium. It collects oxygenated blood as it leaves the lungs and moves the blood into the left ventricle. It is also called Left atrial appendage.
  • C.Right auricle - The right upper chamber of the heart. The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the body through the vena cava and pumps it into the right ventricle which then sends it to the lungs to be oxygenated.
  • D.Kidneys – The two bean-shaped organs, each about the size of a fist. They are located just below the rib cage, one on each side of your spine. Healthy kidneys filter about a half cup of blood every minute, removing wastes and extra water to make urine.

So, the correct option is ‘Lungs’.
