The pulmonary veins take oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium.
Left atrium
Left ventricle
left atrium
The left atrium receives oxygenated blood from the pulmonary veins
The left atrium
Blood returns to the heart via the pulmonary veins and it enters into the left atra.
The left atrium receives the blood carried from the pulmonary veins.
The pulmonary veins are veins which carry oxygenated blood (unlike most veins) back from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart.
All veins carry blood back to the heart. Pulmonary means associated with the lungs. So the pulmonary vein carries blood from the lungs back to the heart. This blood is oxygenated and enters the heart in the chamber called the left atrium.All other veins in the body carry deoxygenated blood, and this can lead to confusion.
The pulmonary veins leave the lungs and carry blood to the left atrium of the heart.
The pulmonary veins are the only veins in the body that carry oxygenated blood. Like all veins the blood in the pulmonary veins travel toward the heart.
