Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Your pulmonary arteries carry blood from your heart to your lungs. They’re the only arteries in your body that carry oxygen-poor (deoxygenated) blood. Your main pulmonary artery (pulmonary trunk ) leaves your right ventricle at your pulmonary valve.
Detailed explanation-2: -The only artery that picks up deoxygenated blood is the pulmonary artery, which runs between the heart and lungs.
Detailed explanation-3: -The pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle into the alveolar capillaries of the lungs to unload carbon dioxide and take up oxygen. These are the only arteries that carry deoxygenated blood, and are considered arteries because they carry blood away from the heart.
