Solution

The correct option is C Pulmonary artery
Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the tissues, except for pulmonary arteries, which carry blood to the lungs for oxygenation (usually veins carry deoxygenated blood to the heart but the pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood as well).

So, the correct answer is 'Pulmonary artery'.
