Solution

The answer is:

After passing through the capillaries in a hepatic lobule, the blood flows into a central vein. Many central veins merge into a hepatic vein which empties into the inferior vena cava.

Explanation:

Central vein: In the hepatic lobule, blood from the capillaries (sinusoids) flows into the central vein.
Hepatic vein: Multiple central veins converge to form the hepatic veins.
Inferior vena cava: The hepatic veins then empty the blood into the inferior vena cava, which carries it back to the heart.
