a)External iliac vein-> 6)fuses with the internal iliac vein to form the common iliac vein
because external and internal ilian veins form the common iliac vein
b)brachial vein->4)drains the radial and ulnar veins
because brachial vein drains the radial and ulnar veins to form the auxillary vein.
c)Popliteal vein->2)drains the anterior and posterior tibial veins
because popliteal vein is formed with the junction of the venae of both anterior and posterior veins.
d)Great Saphenous vein->7)is the longest vein in the body
because great saphenous vein is the longest vein running along the length of the lower limb.
e)Subclavian vein->9)empties directly into the internal jugular vein
because subclavian vein joins the internal jugular vein to form bracheocephalic vein
f)Radial vein->5)empties directly into the brachiocephalic vein
because radial veins combine with ulnal veins to form bracheocephalic vein
g)anterior tibial vein->8)drains the ankle and foot
because anterior tibial vein drains the ankle,knee joint, tibiofubular , foot.
h)dural sinuses->1)empties directly into the inferior vena cava
because dural sinuses drain the blood into cranial cavity emptying it into the inderior vena cava
i)renal vein->drains the superficial palmar arch
because renal vein ends into te superficial plmar arch to ensure blood is emptied completely.
