The pulmonary veins. The word vein is deceiving, because the pulmonary veins are the only veins in the body that carry oxygenated blood. They carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium, and from there it goes to the left ventricle, to the aorta, and then to the rest of the body.
Blood vessels comes in two forms, veins(carry deoxygenated blood), arteries(carry oxygenated blood) and capillaries? maybe, i am not sure if it is a form of blood vessel. Written by Brigitte.P age 13
Basically, oxygen-rich blood is pumped from the heart and is carried to the body cells by the red blood cells. the red blood cells contain haemoglobin and this reacts with the oxygen in the blood to make oxyhaemoglobin. the oxygen is then separated from the haemoglobin and respiration occurs in your body cells. Carbon dioxide is made and is carried back to the right side of your heart and is pumped to the lungs to be exhaled
The pulmonary vein is the vessel responsible for transporting oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to the left atrium.
The heart receives oxygenated blood from the lungs. This blood returns via the pulmonary vein to the left atrium.

Does the pulmonary vein collect oxygen from the lungs?
Pulmonary circulation is the portion of the cardiovascular system which carries deoxygenatedblood away from the heart, to the lungs, and returns oxygenated (oxygen-rich) blood back to the heart :)
What Carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs from the heart?
The pulmonary artery Carries blood containing Oxygen From your lungs to your Heart. So the answer you are seeking is Pulmonary Artery.
What is the main artery that carries blood to your lungs?
The pulmonary artery is the main artery that carries blood to your lungs.
What does the aorta to the lower body do?
The aorta carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to all parts of the body except to the lungs. Oxygen-poor blood is carried to the lungs from the heart through the pulmonary artery.
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.
Is the pulmonary trunk oxygen rich or oxygen poor?
The pulmonary trunk carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs to pick up oxygen.
What blood vessel takes rich blood from the lungs and brings it back to the heart?
The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs.
What is the blood vessel that carries oxgen-rich blood from the lungs to the heart?
The pulmonary veins are high in oxygen and carry blood to the heart. The heart will then pump it to the rest of the body.
What blood vessels carries oxygen rich blood to the heart?
The pulmonary vein.The pulmonary veins transport oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart.
What blood vessel carries oxygen or oxygen poor blood from the heart to the lungs?
pulmonary artery
Which vessels supply the heart with oxygen-rich blood?
The pulmonary veins carries oxygen rich blood from the lungs to the heart.
Does the pulmonary vein collect oxygen from the lungs?
Pulmonary circulation is the portion of the cardiovascular system which carries deoxygenatedblood away from the heart, to the lungs, and returns oxygenated (oxygen-rich) blood back to the heart :)
What Carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs from the heart?

A pulmonary artery carries blood from where to where?
All arteries carry blood from the heart to another organ in the body. The pulmonary artery carries blood from the heart to the lungs.
Which one vein do not carry blood with little oxygen to the heart?
The pulmonary vein carries oxygen-rich blood from the lungs to the heart.
What does the pulmonary vein do?
Carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atria of the heart. Brings blood from the lungs to the heart.
Blood that enters the heart from the lungs carries?
Oxygenated blood or oxygen rich blood.
