Acolgrove:

@dude

JAIDENGYMNASTIC:

hmm?

JAIDENGYMNASTIC:

i think it is b because Artery's job is to pass blood to the lungs. The lungs require oxygen to function. The pulmonary vein's main function is not connected with the lungs

Acolgrove:

thx

dude:

I disagree with this, the oxygen-blood system starts from the superior vena cava. For context, veins are generally deoxygenated (no oxygen), thus invalidates it as being full of oxygen |dw:1602081854790:dw| This could help, although you should note the direction of the blood

Acolgrove:

okay thank you
