The given figure shows schematic plan of blood circulation in humans with labels A to D. Identify the labels along with their functions and select the correct option.


(1) C - Vena Cava - takes blood from body parts to right atrium, PCO2 = 45 mm Hg

(2) D - Dorsal aorta - takes blood from heart to body parts, PO2 = 95 mm Hg

(3) A - Pulmonary vein - takes impure blood from body parts to heart, PO2 = 60 mm Hg

(4) B - Pulmonary artery - takes blood from heart to lungs, PO2 = 90 mm Hg.
