Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The primary pulmonary artery, also known as the pulmonary trunk, is a blood vessel that leaves the heart. It is divided into the left and right pulmonary arteries to the lungs, which deliver pulmonary circulation with a high carbon dioxide material and little oxygen.

Detailed explanation-2: -The blood vessel which carries blood rich in carbon dioxide is known as an artery.

Detailed explanation-3: -Arteries. Arteries carry blood away from the heart. Pulmonary arteries transport blood that has a low oxygen content from the right ventricle to the lungs.

Detailed explanation-4: -Arteries: These strong, muscular blood vessels carry oxygen-rich blood from your heart to your body. They handle a large amount of force and pressure from your blood flow but don’t carry a large volume of blood.
