Pulmonary Trunk - Main Pulmonary Artery. Branches off to left↓ right pulmonary arteries. Pulmonary Arteries (Left) right) - carry oxygen poor blood from heart to lungs Pulmonary Veins (Left +right) Carry - oxygen rich blood from lungs to heart Ascending aorta-oxygen rich blood leaves the heart through ascending aorta in to systemic circulation around the body.
