Solution

Blood vessel:

  1. Blood vessels are systems of interconnected hollow pipes that transport plasma to and from every body part.
  2. These blood vessels transport blood in two directions, from the heart to every other part of the body and the other one from every portion of the body to the heart.

Pulmonary Vein:

  1. The pulmonary vein carries oxygen around the body back to the heart.
  2. It, therefore, has the greatest oxygen content.
  3. The primary pulmonary artery, also known as the pulmonary trunk, is a blood vessel that leaves the heart.
  4. 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.
