If blood is flowing toward the heart which blood vessel is carrying it?
The Pulmonary Vein carries oxygenated blood (blood carrying oxygen) to the heart from the lungs and the other superior vena cava and the inferior vena cava (both are veins also) carries de-oxygenated blood (blood not carrying oxygen) to the heart from the body.
What vessel supplies the gut with oxygenated blood?
The vessel that supplies the gut with oxygenated blood is the MESENTERIC ARTERIES.
State which of the blood vessel would have the most oxygen?
The Aorta would have the most because it leads from the heart to the rest of the body. The Aorta is the body's largest artery. It is the main blood vessel carrying oxygenated blood from the heart.
What is pulmonary artery carrying?
Oxygenated blood
What blood vessel carries oxygenated blood into the left atrium?
The Pulmonary Vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the Left Atrium.
What makes the pulmonary veins and arteries more confusing than other veins and arteries?
We usually think of arteries as the vessels that carry oxygenated blood to the body, and we usually think of veins as the vessels that carry spent blood back to the heart/lungs. But the vessels around the heart can be a little different. It is an artery that carries spent blood from the heart to the lungs (where they get re-charged with oxygen), and then it is a vein that carries this oxygenated blood back to the heart to then be pumped out to the body.To clear it up, realize that if a vessel is carrying blood out of the heart chambers, it is an artery. If the vessel is carrying blood back to the heart chambers, it is a vein. It is not oxygen content that defines a vessel as an artery or a vein.The coronary arteries are vessels that are carrying oxygenated blood out of the heart chambers and into the heart muscle itself; they are not carrying blood into the chambers for pumping. So they also are indeed arteries and not veins.
Which blood vessel supply oxygenated blood to coronary arteries?
the ascending aorta
What blood vessel caries de-oxygenated blood to the lungs?
Pulmonary Arteries
Which blood vessel takes oxygenated blood from the lungs into the heart?
Pulmonary Vein
What is a pulminary vein?
It is a blood vessel that carries oxygenated blood from lungs to heart
What is oxyhaemoglobin?
oxyhemoglobin (hemoglobin bound to oxygen) is highest in the alveolar venule. This is the initial vessel carrying freshly-oxygenated blood away from the alveolus, which is the air-sac in the lung...
What vessel carriers oxygenated blood away from the heart?
Aorta
