Blood is carried away from the heart in arteries or veins?

It depends. The blood that is being carried away from to the body is oxygenated blood and the blood that is being carried away from the heart and heading towards the lungs is called deoxgenated blood. OXYGENATED blood has a high percentage of oxygen and deoxygenated blood has a low percentage of oxygen.


Blood is carried away from the heart by?

Blood is not carried to the heart. The heart is where all the red blood cells are made. The heart pumps blood that is made directly inside the heard or the second layer of the bones which feels like a sponge.


Does the human heart have memory cells?

Memory cells, or T cells, are part of the immune system and carried in the blood stream. Due to the fact that they are carried in blood, the heart does help pump them, but it does not "have" memory cells of its own.


How is the blood different in the arteries going out to body cells compared to the blood coming back to the heart from the body cells?

I'm no anonomy expert, but the blood carried from the heart to the body is oxygen rich while the blood coming from the body has had it's oxygen absorbed so it goes through the heart to the lungs, where it gets oxygen, back to the heart and out to the body again.


What is the difference between an umbilical vein and umbilical artery?

veins carry blood back to the heart, while arteries carry blood away/from the heart. therefore, the arteries carried the oxygen from the heart to the baby via umbilical artery, and the veins picked up waste products such as carbon dioxide and carried it back to the heart via the umbilical vein.
