What is the main pulmonary artery? * Arteries are vessels that carry blood away from the heart. The main pulmonary artery extends from the right ventricle and branches into left and right pulmonary arteries. The left and right pulmonary arteries extend to the left lung and right lung. Function: * Carries de-oxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs. http://Biology.about.com/library/organs/heart/blpulmartery.htm :D im doin biology toooo!!!

The pulmonary artery sends blood to the?
the pulmonary artery sends blood to the lungs.
Which vessels carries deoxygenated blood away from the heart?
Pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle.
What is the artery and vein that takes blood to and from the lungs?
The pulmonary trunk carries blood from the right ventricle of the heart, then splits into the left and right pulmonary arteries. Answer: pulmonary trunk/left and right pulmonary arteries
What direction does oxygen-rich blood flow?
From the heart, through the arteries, except the pulmonary artery.
Which valve does blood pass through in order to enter the pulmonary artery?
The right ventricle pumps blood into the pulmonary artery.
Blood leaves the right ventricle then passes through a valve and enters what blood vessel?
through seminular valve at the time of ventricle contaraction blood from right ventricle is pumped to lungs.
What pumps blood into the pulmonary artery and carries it to the lungs?
The RIGHT VENTRICLE pumps the oxygen-poor blood through the pulmonary semilunar valve and into the pulmonary artery, which carries it to the lungs.
The blood flow goes from the right ventricle through the what?

Which vessels carries deoxygenated blood away from the heart?
Pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle.
Does the pulmonary artery in adults carry 02-rich or 02-poor blood?
The pulmonary artery carries oxygen deficient blood. Blood that returns to the heart passes through the right atrium and ventricle, through the pulmonary artery, to the lungs where gas exchange occurs. Subsequently, oxygen rich blood returns to the heart via the pulmonary vein. Blood then passes through the left atrium and ventricle, and out to the systemic circulation.
