What are the two arteries that carry blood away from the heart?
Pulmonary Arteries.
What two arteries are linked directly to the heart?
The aorta and the one to the lungs called the pulmonary arteries. However, the pulmonary first branch off of the pulmonary trunk.
Why are the pulmonary arteries and umbilical arteries called arteries instead of blood vessels?
Pulmonary arteries and pulmonary veins are two different items. The pulmonary artery takes deoxygenated blood from the heart and into the lungs so that the blood can be oxygenated. The oxygenated blood then returns to the heart, via the pulmonary veins, in order to be pumped into the system circulation.
What is the valve between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery?
The pulmonary or pulmonic valve (a semilunar valve) controls blood flow from the right ventricle to the "pulmonary trunk" that branches into the two pulmonary arteries carrying blood to the lungs.
Why does the pulmonary artery split in two and there are plumonary veins?
The pulmonary artery splits into the left pulmonary artery and right pulmonary artery. The left one goes to the left lung and the right one goes to the right lung to receive oxygen. There are also pulmonary veins. They carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.
What is the function of atery?
The function of arteries is to conduct blood away from the heart. This blood is usually oxygenated but there are two notable exceptions which are the pulmonary and umbilical arteries.

One of your pulmonary veins does not take blood to your right ventricle.your pulmonary arteries on the other hand take blood from the right ventricle. They take the blood to the lungs to be oxygenated. There are four pulmonary arteries, two go to your left lung and two go to your right lung.All of your pulmonary veins takes blood to your left Atrium which then moves it into your left ventricle.
A blood vessel that carries blood from the heart is a?
These are called arterys. There are two main arteries, the aorta and the pulmonary artery.
Types of arteries?
Most veins carry deoxygenated blood from the tissues back to the lungs; exceptions are the pulmonary and umbilicalveins, both of which carry oxygenated blood.
Do all arteries carry oxygenated blood?
no, pulmonary arteries do not carry oxygen rich blood?Answer:No, two arteries carry blood with low levels of oxygen:The pulmonary artery carry blood from heart to the lungs to become oxygenated.The umbilical arteries in the fetus.except the pulmanory arteryThe Pulmonary arteryit is the aortaTrue. Veins are the return route for oxygen depleted blood.Yes they take the oxygenated throughout the body. Veins return the blood to be oxygenated by the lungs.
What vessel carries blood from the lungs to the heart?
The pulmonary artery carries blood from the heart to the lungs
What valve exits the right ventricle?
The pulmonary or pulmonic valve (a semilunar valve) controls blood flow from the right ventricle to the "pulmonary trunk" that branches into the two pulmonary arteries carrying blood to the lungs.
