The pulmonary artery splits into the left pulmonary artery and right pulmonary artery. The left one goes to the left lung and the right one goes to the right lung to receive oxygen.
There are also pulmonary veins. They carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.
pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood and pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood
The Pulmonary Artery
PO2 is higher in the pulmonary vein than it is in the pulmonary artery. It is the only place in the body where the oxygen level is higher in the vein than in the artery.
The right ventricle pumps blood into the pulmonary artery.

The pulmonary artery and the pulmonary vein.
The pulmonary artery Carries blood containing Oxygen From your lungs to your Heart. So the answer you are seeking is Pulmonary Artery.
yes. because it pumps blood to the lungs.
The pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein originates in the heart. What is different about them is that the pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood (blood without oxygen) as supposed to other arteries, which carry oxygenated blood. And the pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood unlike other veins, which carry deoxygenated blood.
Arteries do not have valves. Veins have valves.The only exceptions are the aortic valve where the aorta leaves the left ventricle of the heart, and the pulmonary valve where the pulmonary artery leaves the right ventricle.
