  • Inferior vena cava... not posterior vena cava. fyi.

  • Hi tuoniz,

    In humans the superior vena cava drains the top of the body. In other air breathing vertebrates this vein is referred to as the anterior vena cava.

    The vein referred to as the inferior vena cava in humans drains the bottom of the body and is referred to as the posterior vena cava in other air breathing vertebrates.

    I use the names anterior and posterior vena cava because I need my grade 12 biology class to recognize the names of each, in humans and in other vertebrates.

  • I think it is superior(top) and inferior(bottom) Vena cava, not anterior(front) or posterior(back) vena cava

  • Hi Bledar11,

    In humans the superior vena cava drains the top of the body. In other air breathing vertebrates this vein is referred to as the anterior vena cava.

    The vein referred to as the inferior vena cava in humans drains the bottom of the body and is referred to as the posterior vena cava in other air breathing vertebrates.

    I use the names anterior and posterior vena cava because I need my grade 12 biology class to recognize the names of each, in humans and in other vertebrates.
