What type of blood is in the pulmonary arteries?
Deoxygenated. The blood is carried by the pulmonary arteries from the heart to the lungs to replenish the oxygen.
Why blood flow is slower then pulse rate?

What gases are exchanged in the lungs during breathing?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide are the gases exchanged in the lungs during breathing.
What gases are exchanged in the circulatory system and where?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged by way of the circulatory system. Cells use oxygen for energy and produce carbon dioxide as a waste. Capillaries are where this exchange occurs. Veins carry this product back to the heart. This blood goes to the lungs were you blow off the carbon dioxide and take in oxygen. So the circulatory system and lungs work together to exchange gases.
