🔍 Heart Anatomy Labeling Guide

Let’s go through each blank box and identify the correct anatomical structure it points to:

---

#### 1. Top Left Box (pointing to large vessel at top left)
- ✔ Superior Vena Cava
- Function: Carries deoxygenated blood from the upper body to the right atrium.
- 💡 *Color: Light blue* (to represent deoxygenated blood)

---

#### 2. Top Middle Box (pointing to top center vessel)
- ✔ Aorta
- Function: The largest artery in the body; carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle to the rest of the body.
- 💡 *Color: Red* (oxygenated blood)

---

#### 3. Top Right Box (pointing to top right vessel)
- ✔ Pulmonary Arteries
- Function: Carry deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs.
- 💡 *Color: Light blue* (deoxygenated blood)

---

#### 4. Middle Right Box (pointing to horizontal vessel on right side)
- ✔ Pulmonary Veins
- Function: Carry oxygenated blood from the lungs back to the left atrium.
- 💡 *Color: Red* (oxygenated blood)

---

#### 5. Bottom Right Box (pointing to lower chamber on right)
- ✔ Right Ventricle
- Function: Pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs via pulmonary arteries.
- 💡 *Color: Light blue*

---

#### 6. Bottom Middle Box (pointing to lower chamber on left)
- ✔ Left Ventricle
- Function: Pumps oxygenated blood into the aorta and to the rest of the body.
- 💡 *Color: Red*

---

#### 7. Bottom Left Box (pointing to upper chamber on left)
- ✔ Left Atrium
- Function: Receives oxygenated blood from the pulmonary veins.
- 💡 *Color: Red*

---

#### 8. Middle Left Box (pointing to upper chamber on right)
- ✔ Right Atrium
- Function: Receives deoxygenated blood from the superior and inferior vena cava.
- 💡 *Color: Light blue*

---

#### 9. Lower Left Box (pointing to vessel at bottom left)
- ✔ Inferior Vena Cava
- Function: Brings deoxygenated blood from the lower body to the right atrium.
- 💡 *Color: Light blue*

---

#### 10. Bottom Center Box (pointing to valve between atria and ventricles on right)
- ✔ Tricuspid Valve
- Function: Prevents backflow of blood from the right ventricle to the right atrium.
- 💡 *Color: Can be purple or brown (valve color is not standard, but distinguishable)*

---

#### 11. Bottom Right Box (pointing to valve between atria and ventricles on left)
- ✔ Mitral (Bicuspid) Valve
- Function: Prevents backflow from left ventricle to left atrium.
- 💡 *Color: Same as above – distinguishable*

---

#### 12. Middle Left Box (pointing to valve at exit of right ventricle)
- ✔ Pulmonary Valve
- Function: Prevents backflow of blood from pulmonary artery into right ventricle.
- 💡 *Color: Distinguishable*

---

#### 13. Middle Right Box (pointing to valve at exit of left ventricle)
- ✔ Aortic Valve
- Function: Prevents backflow from aorta into left ventricle.
- 💡 *Color: Distinguishable*

🧠 Summary of Blood Flow Pathway

Here’s how blood moves through the heart:
1. Deoxygenated blood → Superior & Inferior Vena Cava → Right Atrium → Tricuspid Valve → Right Ventricle → Pulmonary Valve → Pulmonary Arteries → Lungs
2. Oxygenated blood → Pulmonary Veins → Left Atrium → Mitral Valve → Left Ventricle → Aortic Valve → Aorta → Body

---

🎨 Coloring Tips

- Use red for oxygenated blood pathways (left side of heart).
- Use light blue for deoxygenated blood pathways (right side of heart).
- Valves can be colored differently (e.g., yellow or gray) to stand out.
