The Hepatic Portal Vein
The aorta is the vessel that carries oxygenated blood from the heart. In contrast, the pulmonary artery is the vessel that carries deoxygenated blood from the heart.
An artery is the vessel that carries blood away from the heart. The pulmonary artery carries only deoxygenated blood after birth.
red blood cells
Veins with the exception of the pulmonary vein which carries oxygenated blood. The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood.
Arteries (carries oxygenated blood), veins (carries deoxygenated blood) and capillaries (blood vessels connecting arteries to veins and vice versa).
Veins typically carry de-oxygenated blood towards the heart. The exception is the pulmonary artery and the umbilical artery.
The pulmonary artery contains the least amount of oxygen, as it carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs to be oxygenated.
The pulmonary vein is the vessel that carries oxygenated blood. Veins, arteries and capillaries are all known as blood vessels as they carry blood around the body.The pulmonary vein is unusual because it is the only vein to carry oxygenated blood, all other veins only carry deoxygenated blood.
pulmonary artery
The Pulmonary Vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart.
Coronary Arteries
The Pulmonary Vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the Left Atrium.
