The pulmonary veins are large blood vessels that carry blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart.

Click Card to flip

left atrium

The left atrium is one of the four chambers in the human heart.

the newly oxygenated blood enters the left atrium of the heart from the pulonary veins. he walls of the left atrium contract to force blood through the matral valve
