Does the pulmonary vein contain oxygen poor blood?

Yes. After the right ventricle pumps the oxygen-poor blood to the lungs (through the pulmonary arteries), the pulmonary veins carry the oxygenated blood back to the left atrium of the heart.Because blood vessels are classified by whether they lead into or away from the heart, the pulmonary veins are carrying oxygenated blood, whereas the pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs.

What are the tubes next to the bronchial tubes?

They terminate at the alveolar sacs which contain the alveoli. Here inhaled O2 is exchanged for exhaled CO2 via the pulmonary veins (which transport de-oxygenated blood with CO2), to the pulmonary arteries (which transport oxygenated blood to the body). Both veins and arteries in this system receive and pump blood from the heart (veins to the heart under low pressure, and arteries from the hear under Hugh pressure. The entire system is called the cardio-pulmonary system.

Short note on heart?

the heart is a muscular organ which is as big as our fist. because both oxygen and carbon dioxide have to be transported by blood, the hear has different chambers to prevent the oxygen-rich blood from mixing with the blood containing carbon dioxide. the carbon dioxide rich blood has to reach the lungs for the carbon dioxide to be removed, and the oxygenated bolld from the lungs has to be brought back to the heart. this oxygen rich blood is then pumped to the rest of the body.


What if your heart rate increases why?

An increased heart rate can be due to physical activity, stress, anxiety, or illness. It is the body's way of pumping more blood to deliver oxygen and nutrients to various parts of the body in response to the increased demand. If your heart rate is consistently elevated without a clear reason, it is important to consult a healthcare professional.


List 3 differences between arteries and veins?

1) Arteries carry blood away from the heart while veins carry blood to the heart. 2) Arteries have thick and muscular walls (as they have to endure higher pressure) whereas veins have thin and slightly muscular walls. 3) Arteries have no valves, while veins have valves. 4) Arteries (in the post-fetal human) carry oxygenated blood except for the pulmonary arteries. Veins (in the post-fetal human) carry de-oxygenated blood except for the pulmonary veins.
