The pulmonary artery, which takes deoxygenated blood from the right side of the heart to the lung to be reoxygenated. The pulmonary vein then carries oxygenated blood back to the left side of the heart to be pumped back to the rest of the body.

∙ 10y agoThe pulmonary arteries leave the right ventricle to travel to the heart, so carry deoxygenated blood. The name "arteries" is used because the vessels are leaving the heart.
The pulmonary veins, conversely, are coming back into the heart, so are veins, but they are carrying oxygenated blood.
