Arteries | MCQs

Explanation

The blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body are called arteries

The largest artery is the aorta, which branches out into smaller arteries that distribute oxygenated blood to different parts of the body. 

Explanation

• Veins are the blood vessels that carry blood from other parts of the body back to the heart.
• They have one-way valves that prevent blood from flowing backwards and ensure it keeps moving towards the heart.

Explanation

• The circulation of blood starts from the right side of the heart.
• Specifically from the right ventricle, which pumps blood into the pulmonary artery and sends it to the lungs to pick up oxygen.
