Blood cells (erythrocytes) can be oxygenated, or deoxygenated. They're both carried within your arteries and veins, with oxygenated blood going away from the heart in arteries, and deoxygenated blood going through veins. Both, oxygenated and deoxygenated can be found in arteries and veins, its just that veins will have a higher concentration of deoxygenated blood, whereas arteries will have a higher level of oxygenated blood.
Everything i said above applies to SYSTEMIC arteries. Pulmonary is different, basically arteries and veins are switched.
The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood. This artery takes blood from the heart to the lungs to be oxygenated again.
There are many structures that contain deoxygenated blood. Everything in venous circulation, the right hide of the heart, and the pulmonary artery all have deoxygenated blood.
The structure that is responsible for carrying deoxygentaed blood from the lungs is the right atrium. The right atrium is located inside of the right side of the heart.
