They carry oxygenated blood in only a few cells since veins are drawn back into the heart and to the lungs to get oxygenated and back into arteries to be pumped out. If the oxygen from the blood that is being pumped out from your arteries is not being used too much, then the oxygen is still carried by the cell to deliver the oxygen to other organs in the body.

(Not counting the pulmonary veins)
the least "deoxygenated" blood is in the renal veins and the jugular.
(Neither the brain nor the kidneys use up all the oxygen in their blood supply.)
Blood flow to the skin is sometimes controlled by temperature - heat to be lost - and MAY be less desaturated.

∙ 12y agoNo, veins do not always carry deoxygenated blood. The exception to this is the pulmonary vein carrying oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium.

∙ 7y agoVeins carry blood back to the heart but the blood is not always low in oxygen. If the blood is coming back from the lungs to the heart, it will be higher in oxygen.

Most veins carry deoxygenated blood true or false?
It is very true that most all veins carry deoxygenated blood.
What vessels transport deoxygenated blood into the heart?
in most cases, veins carry deoxygenated blood. the exception to this are the pulmonary veins which carry oxygenated blood. all veins carry blood back to the heart, while arteries carry blood away from the heart.
Which blood vessels carry deoygenated blood?
In all cases except one, veins carry deoxygenated blood. The exception is the pulmonary veins which carry oxygenated blood to the heart from the lungs. Veins ALWAYS carry blood to the heart.
What direction do veins carry blood?
Veins carry blood towards the heart. Arteries carry it away from the heart.
What do veins do in the body?
Okay well what veins of the body do is they carry blood towards the heart. basically they are blood vessels. the difference between veins and arteries is that arteries Carrie oxygenated blood and veins carry deoxygenated blood that it also why veins are greenish- blue
What veins carry deoxygenated blood?
All veins carry de-oxygenated blood away from the heart except for the pulmonary vein and the umbilical vein, both of which carry blood towards the heart.
Most veins carry what kind of blood?
The only veins in an adult that carry oxygenated blood are the pulmonary veins, which carry blood from the lungs to the heart after it has been oxygenated. All other veins in the body carry relatively de-oxygenated blood.However in fetal circulation, the umbilical vein also carries oxygenated blood.Otherwise, arteries carry oxygenated blood to the body from the aorta and heart.
Which blood vessels carry oxygenated and deoxygenated blood?
In the main, except from the pulmonary artery and vein. The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs and the vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.
What is the only vein does not carry oxygenated blood?
"Pulmonary veins" donot carry carbon dioxide as they bring oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.
How does veins carry oxygenated blood while others carry deoxygenated blood?
Veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the right atrium of the heart, which sends it through the tricuspid valve to the right ventricle to the pulmonary semilunar valve to the pulmonary arteries to the lungs (to become oxygenated and get rid of waste gases) to the pulmonary veins to the left atrium of the heart through the bicuspid valve to the left ventricle through the semilunar aortic valve to the ascending aorta to the aortic arch and out to the body. So the only veins that are oxygenated are the pulmonary veins that carry the oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart. They are still called veins because they carry blood TO the heart. Thus, the only deoxygenated blood in arteries is also the pulmonary arteries, because they carry the deoxygenated blood AWAY from the heart to the lungs. All veins must carry blood toward the heart and all arteries must carry blood away from the heart.
Veins carry blood from the heart to the .?
Veins always bring blood from somewhere to the heart. The pulmonary veins bring it from the lungs to the heart and is the only time when it carries oxygenated blood. All other veins carry deoxygenated blood from the body tissues back to the heart.
Which veins carry de-oxygenated blood?
Veins carry a little bit of oxygen, our bodies do not use all the oxygen we breathe in. The pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from the lungs, back to the left atrium so it may be pumped through the left ventricle into the aorta and out into the arterial circulation.
