Solution
The correct option is A
Coronary artery
Coronary artery supplies blood to the heart. The right atrium of the heart receives deoxygenated blood from different parts of the body through the main veins, such as the superior vena cava, inferior vena cava, and the coronary sinus. Pulmonary veins, on the other hand, bring oxygenated blood to the left atrium from the lungs.
