What is the vessel leaving the heart with low oxygen?
The blood vessel that carries deoxygenated (low oxygen) blood away from the heart is called the pulmonary artery. This artery carries blood to the lungs where it picks up oxygen and then travels back to the heart to be pumped out to the cells of the body. The best way to remember this is to remember that pulmonary means lungs and artery means a blood vessel that carries blood away from the heart. Most arteries carry blood that is rich in oxygen. The pulmonary artery is an exception.

The pulmonary vein carries blood rich in oxygen from the lungs to the heart. This oxygenated blood is then pumped to the rest of the body through the aorta.

What is the description of a blood vessel?
Any vein, Artery or cappillary can be classed as a blood vessel as they all carry blood around the body. To be considered an artery the blood vessel must carry blood away from the heart. To be considered a Vein the blood vessel must carry blood towards the heart. A cappillery is an incredibly small blood vessel, it has walls thin enough to allow gasses to pass through, from the blood, to the body and vice versa. NB:- Most veins carry de-oxygenated and most arteries carry oxygenated blood. However, this is not allways the case. For example, the pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the Heart. Also, the Pulmonary artery carries de-oxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs. hope this helps
