Grooves (Sulci)

  • The human heart is four-chambered with a distinct transverse groove called atrioventricular groove or coronary sulcus that divides it into a smaller anterior atrial part and a posterior ventricular part 
  • The left and right atria are separated externally by a shallow vertical interatrial groove. 
  • Two grooves marking the boundary between right and left ventricles are anterior interventricular and posterior interventricular sulcus. 
  • Two major arterial trunks i.e. pulmonary arch and aortic arch, along with two major venous trunks i.e. superior and inferior vena cava are also seen in intimate association with heart
     

- The left and right atria are separated externally by a shallow vertical interatrial groove. Hence, the correct answer is option c.
