What are two major blood vessels that contain oxygen-rich blood?
The pulmonary vein and the aorta: a) The pulmonary carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart. b) The aorta carries the oxygenated blood from the heart to the body and head.
What is the Major artery that carries oxygenated blood away from the heart is the?
pulmonary artery
What type of blood travels from the lungs to the heart?
Blood receives oxygen and releases carbon dioxide as it passes through the lungs (within the blood vessels), therefore it would be oxygenated blood traveling from the lungs into the heart, and through the heart and going out to all major organs, the brain, and to the limbs.
How does the pulmonary vein differ from the other veins in the body?
The pulmonary vein is the only vein that carries oxygenated blood. Arteries are the major oxygenated blood carriers (away from the heart) veins carry blood back to the heart. The pulmonary vein returns blood from the lungs to be distributed by the heart and arteries.
Which blood vessels carry blood blood away from the heart?
the arteries.Vessels that carry blood away from the heart are referred to as arteries. (For study purpose, remember *A*rtery = *A*way. They both start with A) Specifically, there are two main vessels that carry blood directly away from the heart. The aorta is the major vessel that takes oxygenated blood from the left side of the heart to the rest of the body. The pulmonary arteries take deoxygenated blood ("blue" blood") away from the heart to the lungs, where it is oxygenated then returned to be pumped out the aorta.
What is the major vein that carries blood from the head to the heart?
what is the major artery and vein that deliver and drain blood to and from the head along the spinal cord?
What are the three major circuits of blood flow?
Pulmonary circulation (between the heart and lungs) Systematic circulation (between the heart and the rest of the body) Coronary circulation (the heart's own blood supply/supply to cardiac tissue)
Which vessel carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the body tissues?
The large artery connected to the heart, called the Aorta.
What carry blood away from the heart'?
Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart.
What are the two major pathways of the vascular system?
The two major pathways of the vascular system are the systemic circulation, which carries oxygenated blood from the heart to the body's tissues and organs, and the pulmonary circulation, which carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs for oxygenation.
What are the major part involve in the circulatory system?
The major parts of the circulatory system include the heart, blood vessels (arteries, veins, and capillaries), and blood. The heart pumps blood through the blood vessels to deliver oxygen and nutrients to cells and remove waste products.
What is the major difference between the right heart and the left heart?
There are many differences between the right and left side of the heart. However, the major difference between these sides of the heart is that blood is taken into the left side of the heart while the right side pushes the blood through the body.
