About the Atria

The atria are separated from the ventricles by heart valves.

The heart has two atria. A right atrium and a left atrium

The right atrium receives deoxygenated blood from the body through a vein called the Vena Cava and pumps it into the right ventricle.

The left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the lungs through a vein called the Pulmonary Vein and pumps it into the left ventricle.
