For the most part, yes. A vein carries blood to the heart and an artery carries blood away from the heart. Therefore, the vessel from the heart to the lungs is an artery, even though it is unoxygenated, and the vessel from the lungs to the heart is a vein, even though it is oxygenated.
the artieries that lead to your heart have carbon dioxide (Co2) in them and the arteries that lead to your body are carrying oxygen to the body parts
Pulmonary veins. Arteries lead away from the heart.
Pulmonary Arteries lead from the heart to the lungs. Systemic arteries go everywhere else. Consequently, the pulmonary arteries are usually slightly smaller and thinner. There is also less of them.
The arteries that actually serve the heart itelf are known as coronary arteries.

Stroke, Heart Attack.
Pulmonary veins. Arteries lead away from the heart.
The coronary arteries transport oxygen-rich blood to the heart muscle. These arteries are responsible for supplying the heart with the oxygen and nutrients it needs to function properly. If there is a blockage or narrowing in these arteries, it can lead to various heart conditions such as heart attack.
Heart- The heart pumps the blood throughout the body. Arteries- The arteries lead the blood away from the heart (arteries= away) Veins- The veins lead the blood to the heart Capillaries- The capillaries absorb the nutrients and oxygen Red Blood Cells- The red blood cells act as a transporter

Cholesterol.
It can lead to a heart attack.

No arteries do, these then lead into arterioles and into capilliaries.
