The correct option is D
All of the above

Arteries normally carry oxygenated blood. However, the pulmonary artery is an exception. It carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs. Similarly, the pulmonary vein is an exception; unlike most veins, it carries oxygenated blood. The aorta is the largest artery in the body and carries oxygenated blood to the body. Coronary arteries supply oxygenated blood to heart muscles.
