Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The pulmonary artery is a blood vessel that comes out of your heart. It splits into two sides, right and left, that carry blood to your lungs where oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged.

Detailed explanation-2: -The upper branch is the superior lobar artery, which feeds into the superior lobe of the lung. The lower branch divides again within the lung to form the middle lobar and inferior lobar arteries that supply the lower 2 lobes of the lung since there are 3 lobes of the right lung.

Detailed explanation-3: -The left pulmonary artery is one of the branches of the pulmonary trunk, branching at the level of the transthoracic plane of Ludwig. It is shorter than the right pulmonary artery and represents a direct posterior continuation of the pulmonary trunk.
