Answer:

The pulmonary vein carries the oxygenated blood from lungs to the left atrium not into the aorta. The Pulmonary artery is the carrier that carries deoxygenated blood into lungs, taking it from the right ventricle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pulmonary artery then carries deoxygenated blood to lungs where oxygen gets in by respiration. These veins finally return the oxygenated blood to the left of heart which is left atrium.
