The vessel that carries blood between arterioles and small vessels called venules?
The vessel that carries blood between arterioles and small vessels is called capillaries. Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels in the body where the exchange of nutrients, oxygen, and waste products occurs between the blood and tissues.
What blood vessel in fetus contain the most oxygen?
In the umbilical cord you have one vein and two arteries. This vein goes to the liver of foetus. This blood vessel contains most oxygen and food in case of foetus. After birth this vessel gets obliterated to form the falciform ligament.
Which blood vessel carries oxygen-poor blood back to the heart?
Systemic veins, not to be confused with pulmonary veins, carry oxygen poor blood back to the heart.
What is a pulmonary arteriole?
A pulmonary arteriole is a small blood vessel that carries oxygen-poor blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs for oxygenation. These arterioles are part of the pulmonary circulation system that helps exchange carbon dioxide for oxygen in the blood.
What small vessel and organ carries chemicals throughout the body?
The organ that is responsible for carrying chemicals through the body is the heart. This is because the heart pumps the blood which carries chemicals and oxygen to all body parts.
What blood vessel carries oxygen in blood?
pulmonary vein
What blood vessel carries oxygen or oxygen poor blood from the heart to the lungs?
pulmonary artery
What fetal blood vessel has the highest oxygen concentration?
The umbilical vein carries oxygen-rich blood from the placenta to the fetus, making it the fetal blood vessel with the highest oxygen concentration.
What blood vessel carries oxygen poor blood from the heart to the lungs?
pulmonary vein
What is the blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrient-containing blood away from the heart?
artery
What is the blood vessel that carries oxygen rich blood from the lung?
The pulmonary veins carry oxygen rich blood from the lungs to the heart.
What blood vessel carries oxygen to every cell in your body?
Capillaries
Is an artery a type of blood vessel?
Yes, an artery is a type of blood vessel that carries oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to the rest of the body.
What is the blood vessel that carries oxygen poor blood from the right ventricles of the heart to the lungs?
Pulmonary Arteries
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.
What is the name of the blood vessel that carries oxygen to the cells and pick up waste?
Capillaries
What vessel carries food and oxygen to the heart?
Food?! Nothing. If you're referring to how the blood gains oxygen, it is via the coronary arteries which surround the heart, providing the cardiac tissue with energy and oxygen. If you're meaning what blood vessel carries oxygenated blood to the heart it would be the pulmonary vein.
