This is a false statement. While most of the arteries in the body carry oxygenated blood, the Pulmonary Arteries carry de-oxygenated blood from the Right Ventricle of the heart to the lungs.

Is the oxygenated blood found in the umbilical vein or in the umbilical arteries?

arteries


Where in the body are veins and arteries?

Veins and arteries are found throughout the body. Veins transport "used" or de-oxygenated blood back to the heart whereas arteries deliver oxygenated blood throughout the body.


Which type of blood vessels will oxygenated blood be found?

Arteries (except for the Pulmonary artery (which caries ed-oxygenated blood) and pulmonary vein (which carries oxygenated blood ))


Is oxygenated blood found in all arteries?

No, but almost. The pulmonary artery is the ONLY artery that carries deoxygenated blood.


Which structure would normally contain deoxygenated blood?

The circulatory system carries oxygenated blood to the body. ^more specifically, the arteries in your circulatory system do. Circulatory system is the container for blood. Artery- 02 rich blood Venous- 02 poor blood


How does the circulatory system help your cells get rid of carbon dioxide?

The blood flowing through the veins carry the carbon dioxide from the cells of all parts of the body to the heart. Hence we say that the veins transmit the De-oxygenated blood from all parts of the body to the heart. The De-oxygenated blood collected in the heart flows to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. The blood gets oxygenated in the lungs. Then the oxygenated blood flows to the heart through the pulmonary vein. Then the oxygenated blood flows to all parts of the body through the arteries. So blood flows into the heart through the veins, and flows out of the heart through the arteries. Normally the De-oxygenated blood flows through the veins and the oxygenated blood flows through the artery. The only exceptions are the pulmonary artery that transmits de-oxygenated blood from heart to the lungs and the pulmonary vein that transmits oxygenated blood from lungs to heart. This is because blood flows into the heart by veins and flows out of the heart by arteries.


Oxygenated blood is found in the right atrium?

No. Right atrium is collecting venous (low oxygen) blood from all over the body.


What is found in veins but not found in arteries?

"low oxygenated blood/carbondioxide"The above statement is not always true. For example, the pulmonary vein brings oxygenated blood from the lungs into the left atrium, while the pulmonary artery takes deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs.The answer is valves.Veins need valves to prevent the backflow of blood, as venous pressure is not great enough to overcome forces (such as gravity) on its return to the heart.However, when the heart pumps, enough pressure is provided to send the blood throughout the body, so arteries do not need valves.


What type of blood is found in the left ventricle?

oxygenated blood


What are characteristics of blood?

Three types of blood vessels are found in the human body: arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries typically carry oxygenated blood away from the heart with the exception of the pulmonary arteries, which carry deoxygenated blood to the lungs. Veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart. Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels and they allow various substances such as oxygen, carbon dioxide and nutrients, to pass from the bloodstream into the tissues of the body.


What blood vessel is oxyginated blood found in?

arteries.


Where is oxygenated blood found?

simple. everywhere! when you cut your self and start bleeding you blood turns redder and its oxeygen. there you have it! oxeygenataed blood.
