Question

Which blood vessel has a high carbon dioxide concentration, a low oxygen concentration and a high blood pressure?

Answer 1

The pulmonary artery has a high carbon dioxide concentration, a low oxygen concentration, and a high blood pressure. The artery carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs. As a result, the blood in the pulmonary artery is enriched in carbon dioxide lacking oxygen, while the contraction of the right ventricle produces high pressure in this blood vessel.
