Veins only carry blood away from the body and back to the heart. Arteries carry blood away from the heart. There are two main venae, the superior and the inferior venae cavae, that enter the heart carrying oxygen poor blood. Then the pulmonary artery carries that blood to the lungs, where it is oxygenated. The oxygenated blood then travels back to the heart via the pulmonary vein and then is pumped to the rest of the body through the aorta, the main artery leading to the rest of the body.

They are called veins. Arteries carry blood from the heart. Veins carry blood to the heart.
Arteries carry blood away from the heart. Veins carry blood towards the heart.
Veins.
Veins almost always carry deoxygenated blood from the periferal areas of the body to the heart. The veins going from our lungs to the heart, the pulmonary veins, however, carry oxygenated blood. Therefore the answer is: The pulmonary veins.

Hi, veins function as a blood reservoir as they carry the blood, this giving them the name (reservoir)
The tubes that carry blood are known as the blood vessels. They include arteries, veins, and capillaries.
Tubes that carry blood are collectively known as blood vessels. These include veins, arteries, and capillaries.
The 3 types of blood vessels are: 1. veins, which carry blood to the heart; 2. capillaries, which connect veins and arteries, and 3. arteries, which carry blood away from the heart.
