no, pulmonary arteries do not carry oxygen rich blood?
Answer:
No, two arteries carry blood with low levels of oxygen:
- The pulmonary artery carry blood from heart to the lungs to become oxygenated.
- The umbilical arteries in the fetus.
except the pulmanory artery
The Pulmonary artery
it is the aorta
True. Veins are the return route for oxygen depleted blood.
Yes they take the oxygenated throughout the body. Veins return the blood to be oxygenated by the lungs.

∙ 10y agoThe blood in most arteries is oxygen rich. The blood in the pulmonary artery is oxygen-poor.
yes all the arteries carry oxygenated blood except pulmonary artery which carry deoxigenated blood from the right ventricle of the heart towards the lungs..
I don't know what arties are, but arteries carry oxygen-rich blood while veins carry CO2 rich blood.

∙ 9y agoArteries almost always carry oxygen rich blood. The exception to this rule is the pulmonary artery. The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs to pick up oxygen.

∙ 10y agoNo, only the pulmonary vein carries oxygen rich blood.
No, about half of them do. The ones leading away from the lungs carry oxygen rich blood, then the oxygen gets used up. then the ones leading too the lungs (the other half) do not.

∙ 12y agoAll arteries except for the pulmonary artery carry oxygen rich blood. All veins except for the pulmonary vein carry oxygen poor blood.
Generally, people think "A" for away from the heart for arteries. All arteries carry blood away from the heart. The one artery that carries blood away from the heart before it gets oxygenated in the lungs is the artery that carries the oxygen poor blood form the right ventricle to the lungs: the pulmonary artery.
The blood in the lungs carried back to the heart by the pulmonary vein is the only oxygen rich blood in veins. All other veins which carry blood to the heart carry oxygen poor blood.

∙ 10y agofalse; all arteries except the pulmonary artery carry oxygen-rich blood.

∙ 14y agoNo, most arteries carry oxygenated blood (red blood) only one that i know called the pulmonary artey carries deoxygenated blood (blue blood).

Is gas exchange in the arteries?
Yes. When ever the arteries take oxygen rich blood to your muscles, the muscles take the oxygen out to use it to create energy. The oxygen deficient blood is taking back to the heart through the veins, then taken back to the lungs to extract oxygen again
How can you get more oxygen in to the blood if you have Emphysema?
people with this disease normally will have to carry an oxygen tank with them where ever they go.
Which arteries are blue?
Although it is an arguable topic whether blood is ever truly blue at one point or not, we'll just go along with the common lesson that "blue blood" is blood that is not oxygen-rich. This blue blood is carried in the pulmonary artery, where it is taken to the lungs in order to obtain oxygen, where it is then sent back to the heart, then sent to the rest of the body.
Where does the blood flow faster the veins or arteries?
Arteries are thicker walled to hold the blood pressure of the heart pushing blood into them away from the heart. The thickness is from oxygen rich blood within them. Veins have no oxygen in the blood so that they must be fed oxygen with what ever red blood surrounds them. The blood pushed away from the heart thru an artery will flow faster than the blood drawn back to the heart, returning to the heart in a vein. (Simple fact blowing has more power than sucking.) This is why a banding around a limb usually fills with blood because the heart pressure pushes the blood through /past the banding but the draw from the heart isnt powerful enough to bring the blood back with the tight cord around your limb. Blood flows faster in the arteries because not only is their more muscle tissue than in a vein but arteries are thicker.
Are most of our blood vessels arteries veins or capillaries?
They can be what ever you want them to be!
In an orbiting space station would the blood pressure in major arteries in the leg ever be greater than the blood pressure in major arteries in neck?
yes the blood pressure in major arteries in the leg is greater than the blood pressure in arteries in neck during orbiting in an orbiting space station.
Do veins ever carry blood away from the heart?
no
Why do you carry oxygen cylinder when ever you go for mount nearing?
the oxygen on a mountain is thinner than on the ground.
Did red blood cells ever have nucleus?
They did have a nucleus . When they are formed in the bone-marrow, they contain a nucleus, but when the become mature it is replaced by haemoglobin in order to carry more oxygen. By- Pranjal Prasoon
Does blood ever flow backwards in the heart?
Arteries have no valves to prevent the blood from flowing backwards, but it is unnecessary when the heart keeps pumping. The blood pressure is highest when the blood is leaving the heart chamber into arteries -- the heart pumping keeps blood going one-way in the arteries.
How does the circulatory system bring oxygen to ever cell in body?
The circulatory system play a key role in providing the body with the oxygen needed by cells. The circulating blood carries the oxygen replenished red cells through the arteries to all parts of the body.
Why does oxygen go from the lungs to the blood vessels and not from the blood vessels to the lungs?
The energy broken down from the oxygen is transported into throughout the body by blood vessels. That energy is dropped of at what ever part of the body needs it, and the blood vessel goes back to the lungs for more.
