Why are the pulmonary arteries and umbilical arteries called arteries instead of blood vessels?
Pulmonary arteries and pulmonary veins are two different items. The pulmonary artery takes deoxygenated blood from the heart and into the lungs so that the blood can be oxygenated. The oxygenated blood then returns to the heart, via the pulmonary veins, in order to be pumped into the system circulation.
