Answer to Question 1

Answer: TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Oxygen-depleted blood in the capillary beds enters a venule, which carries it to a vein, from which it travels to the inferior vena cava, which releases it into the right atrium, which releases it into the right ventricle. The right ventricle pumps blood into the pulmonary arteries, which take it to the lungs.
