Answer:

inferior vena cava (IVC) is the vein that carries deoxygentated blood back into the heart so the blood can become oxygenated again. It is the vein at the bottom of the heart. The superior vena cava (SVC) carries the oxygenated blood back into the body. It carries blood from your neck, head upper chest, and arms to your heart.
