Aorta -
The pulmonary artery is just going to the lungs, so it has to be lower pressure.
The aorta is where all the blood going to the rest of the body is pumped through.
the aorta :)
The order, from most to least pressure: * Aorta * pulmonary artery * capillary bed * subclavian vein This is because the aorta takes blood the farthest distance, from the heart to the rest of our body organs, so it requires a greater push from the heart. Pressure in the veins is always lower, due to the fact the blood flowing through them has travelled further. The pulmonary artery doesn't take blood as far as the aorta, so it therefore does not need as high a pressure.
Systemic via the aorta - pulmonary via the pulmonary artery.
Arterial duct is the structure that connects the aorta and the pulmonary artery.
The aorta is the largest artery in the body and consequently is the largest leaving the heart. The other artery to leave the heart is the pulmonary artery (incidentally the only artery that doesn't carry oxygenated blood).
Right Antrium
The pulmonary artery is not part of the aorta.
It is present to shunt leftover blood from the pulmonary artery to the aorta because the pressure in the right fetal heart is higher than that in the left.
No, the aorta is the largest artery.

There isn't one. The pulmonary artery flows from the lungs to the Left atrium, to the left ventricle, and then to the aorta

Arterial duct is the structure that connects the aorta and the pulmonary artery.
Both of them are arteries. Pulmonary artery supplies blood to lungs whereas Aorta supplies blood to all other parts of the body. Both of them are the outlets of the heart. Pulmonary artery is a part of pulmonary circulation while Aorta is a part of systemic circulation.
No, the aorta is part of the systemic circuit. The pulmonary circuit consists of the pulmonary artery and vein.
