Is P02 of pulmonary veins higher than the pulmonary artery P02?
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.
What are two structural differences between pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein?
one is vein one is artery
How do you utilize Mimics19.0 to segment pulmonary artery and vein?

What is the name of the vein that carries blood from the lungs to the heart?
Artery - always carries blood FROM the heart Vein - always carries blood TO the heart The vein which brings blood to the heart from the lungs is the PULMONARY VEIN ('pulmonary' = lungs). The one carrying blood away from the heart to the lungs is the pulmonary artery. Easy.
What does a pulmonary artery carry that a pulmonary vein doesn't?
The pulmonary artery carries oxygen-poor blood. The pulmonary vein carries oxygen-rich blood.
What connect the heart to the lungs?
the pulmonary artery and the pulmonary vein
How is the pulmonary artery located compared to the pulmonary vein?
Superiorly
What is the similarity between pulmonary vein and pulmonary artery?
Both the pulmonary vein and pulmonary artery are blood vessels located in the pulmonary circulation system of the body. The pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart, while the pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs for oxygenation.
What the differences between pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein?
The pulmonary artery takes blood from the right ventricle into the lungs; the pulmonary vein collects blood from the lungs back to the left atrium of the heart.
What connects the lungs to the circulatory system?
The pulmonary artery and the pulmonary vein.
What blood vessels carry blood to and from the lungs?
The pulmonary vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart, and the pulmonary artery carries de-oxygenated blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs.
Why the pulmonary veins carrying the oxygenated blood and not the pulmonary artery?
it's a pulmonary VEIN because the blood isn't under as much pressure (because it has yet to get to the heart) where as the pulmonary artery is coming straight from the heart so is under more pressure. (the pressure is caused by the heart's contractions)
