Arteries are blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood away from the heart (with the exception of the pulmonary artery which carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs). Hormones are transported by the blood but not specifically by arteries. Nutrients are also carried by the blood in general. Deoxygenated blood is mainly carried by veins (except pulmonary veins). Carbon dioxide is a waste product mainly transported in the blood (often in veins).
