b	Inferior Vena Cava	q	Carries oxygenated blood from lungs
c	Pulmonary Artery	r	Brings deoxygenated blood from lower parts of body to right atrium
d	Pulmonary vein	t	Brings deoxygenated blood from upper parts of body into right atrium

• A. a - q, b - t, c - r, d - p
• B. a - t, b - p, c - q, d - r
• C. a - t, b - r, c - p, d - q
• D. a - t, b - p, c - r, d - q

Answer 1

The correct option is C a - t, b - r, c - p, d - q

a. Superior vena cava brings deoxygenated blood from upper parts of body (head and neck) to right atrium.

b. Inferior vena cava brings deoxygenated blood from lower parts of the body (pelvis, lower limbs, gonads, muscles of back, kidneys, liver etc.) to right atrium.

c. Pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs.

d. Pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left auricle.

So, the correct answer is 'a - t, b - r, c - p, d - q'.
