Pulmonary arteries transport dehydrogenated blood from the heart to the lungs. Arteries always go away from the heart. Arteries have thicker wall to handle to pressure of the heart during the contractions. Pulmonary veins transport oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart, which then pumps to the rest of the body.
