The right atrium receives blood returning from others parts of the body through the superior vena cava and the inferior vena cava.  

Explanation:

The pathway of circulation begins in the right atrium which receives the carbon dioxide-rich deoxygenated blood returning through the systemic circulation.  

The deoxygenated blood from regions superior to the heart, i.e., the head, neck, shoulder areas are collected through the superior vena cava and that from the parts inferior or lower to the heart like visceral organs, extremities, trunk, hip etc are brought through the inferior vena cava.

Both these venous systems (superior and inferior) fill the right atrium.

The right atrium then pumps the deoxygenated blood to the right ventricle via the tricuspid valve.

The right atrium is filled with blood during diastole.

umka21 [38]
1. Greenhouse gases are compounds that are able to trap heat in the atmosphere, keeping the Earth's surface warmer than it would be if they were not present. The gases are the fundamental cause of the greenhouse effect. Increase in the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere enhances the greenhouse effect which is creating global warming and consequently the climate change. These gases are mainly carbon dioxide; metahne, nitrous oxide, and flourinated gases. 
 
2. Carbon dioxide enters the atmosphere from animals and plants through the process of respiration and the burning of fossil fuels from industries. .
Animals and plants get rid of carbon dioxide gas through respiration. Carbon may also move from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned. Burning of fuels to power factories, power plants, cars and trucks makes carbon to enter the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
