In what direction do all arteries carry blood?

Arteries carries blood away from the heart. They mostly carry oxygenated blood. The pulmonary artery however carries unoxygenated blood.Veins carry blood toward the heart. They likewise carry unoxygenated blood except for the pulmonary veins which carries oxygenated blood.


Where is the location of the left pulmonary vein?

The left pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood from the left lung to the left atrium of the heart. The pulmonary arteries and veins are the only ones which are "opposite" as the rest of the bodies veins and arteries. Veins normally carry unoxygenated blood from the body back to the heart/lungs. Arteries normally carry oxygenated blood to the body from the heart. Pulmonary arteries carry unoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs and pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from the lungs back to the heart.

What is the main purpose of the veins?

the main function of veins are to carry blood to the heart!! blood travels through the veins in low pressure which is why veins have thinner walls then ateries as there is no risk of bursting!
