Oxygenated blood refers to blood that has picked up oxygen from the lungs and is rich in oxygen, typically found in the arteries. In contrast, deoxygenated blood is blood that has delivered its oxygen to the body's tissues and is returning to the heart, often rich in carbon dioxide, usually found in the veins. This process is vital for maintaining the body's oxygen supply and removing waste gases.

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.
