The pulmonary arteries are blood vessels that carry oxygen-poor blood from the heart to the lungs for oxygenation.
The components of the pulmonary circuit include the right ventricle, pulmonary arteries, pulmonary capillaries, and pulmonary veins. This circuit carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs to pick up oxygen and release carbon dioxide. The components of the systemic circuit include the left ventricle, aorta, systemic arteries, systemic capillaries, and systemic veins. This circuit carries oxygenated blood from the heart to the rest of the body to deliver oxygen and nutrients, and returns deoxygenated blood back to the heart.
Most arteries (except the pulmonary arteries), arterioles, the left side of the heart, and the pulmonary veins.
The pulmonary arteries and pulmonary veins are most closely associated with the transport of deoxygenated blood. The pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs for oxygenation, while the pulmonary veins return oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.
The two kinds of blood circuits are systemic circulation, which carries oxygenated blood from the heart to the body and returns deoxygenated blood back to the heart, and pulmonary circulation, which carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs for oxygenation and returns oxygenated blood back to the heart.
The systemic arteriole, then the capillaries, the venule, the vein, the vena cava, the heart, the pulmonary artery, the pulmonary arterioles, capillaries, the pulmonary veins, the heart, into the aorta, and back into the artery.
Pulmonary Arteries lead from the heart to the lungs. Systemic arteries go everywhere else. Consequently, the pulmonary arteries are usually slightly smaller and thinner. There is also less of them.
The Pulmonary Artery
pulmonary vein and systemic veins
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.
yes
The Pulmonary arteries
You have the aorta, large and small arteries, capillaries and veins in the systemic circulation. You have the pulmonary aorta, arteries, capillaries and veins in the venous system. The blood pressure in the systemic circulation is much greater and hence the vessels are thicker there.
they carrythe blood to and from thelungs
An artery is an elastic blood vessel that transports blood away from the heart. There are two main types of arteries: pulmonary arteries and systemic arteries. Pulmonary arteries carry blood from the heart to the lungs where the blood picks up oxygen. The oxygen rich blood is then returned to the heart via the pulmonary veins. Systemic arteries deliver blood to the rest of the body. The aorta is the main systemic artery and the largest artery of the body. It originates from the heart and branches out into smaller arteries which supply blood to the head region, the heart itself, and the lower regions of the body.

In the main, except from the pulmonary artery and vein. The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs and the vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.
