Solution
The correct option is D All arteries except one carry oxygenated blood.
Arteries are the blood vessels coming out of the heart and supply blood to different parts of the body through aorta, arterioles, and meta-arterioles. All arteries carry oxygenated blood except the pulmonary artery which carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs.
Veins are the blood vessels that bring blood from different body parts back to the heart. All veins carry deoxygenated blood except the pulmonary vein which carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart.
