What gas is carried by most arteries?
Oxygen. The pulmonary artery carries carbon dioxide instead.
What type of blood are the arteries responsible transporting?
Oxygenated blood is carried by all arteries but one which is the pulmonary artery
A gas that is transported in arteries from the lungs to the body by the heart?
The pulmonary artery takes carbon dioxide (CO2) from the heart to the lungs. Oxygen is then carried back to the heart by the pulmonary vein. Finally, the aorta/arteries carry oxygen to the body.
What blood vessel takes blood from the heart to the lungs?
