OXYGENATED blood is bright red in colour due to it being saturated with oxygen. The oxygen carrying capacity is thus fully filled up (98%-100%). This is present in all the arteries and the pulmonary vein.
DEOXYGENATED blood is dark red in colour and is usually about 70 % only saturated with oxygen. This is present in allthe veins of the body and the pulmonary artery.

Blood consits of many different cell the most important being the red blood cells which contain heamoglobin. This is the substance to which oxygen adheres. This is then pumped around the body from the heart. As it travels around the body the red blood cells give up it's oxygen and the plasma absorbs carbon dioxide from all the cells in the body. On returning to the heart it is then pumped through the Lungs where carbon dioxide passes though the capillary walls into the lungs (in the alveoli) and oxygen passes from the lungs into the red blood cells. from the lungs it then passes back to the heart to be pumped back around the body. So oxygenated blood contains oxygen and deoxygenated blood has little to no oxygen.

In appearence, oxygenated blood is redder because of the presence of oxygen.This means this kind of blood had just come from the alveol in the lungs and is on its way to th heart and then to all the cells in the body via the arteries.
In deoxygenated blood,the blood is lacking in oxygen and contains more carbon dioxide and so looks kind 'purpleish'.This normally occurs when blood has been collected from the cells of the body and it is on its way to the heart where through pulmonary circualtion will go to the ehart and colelct oxygen from the lungs.

Oxygenated blood does as it suggests and carries oxygen from the lungs to the major organs, once it has passed on the oxygen it becomes deoxygenated and travels back to the lungs.

oxygenated blood is blood that carries oxygen. It is carried in arteries from the lungs to the left side of the heart and around the body. There is only one vein that carries oxygenated blood and that's the pulmonary vein.
deoxygenated blood is blood that carries Carbon dioxide. It is carried in veins from the body to the right side of the heart and then to the lungs. There is only one artery that carries deoxygenated blood and that's the pulmonary artery.
I hope this explains it well enough and makes sense to you.

Oxygenated blood leaves the heart, it's pumped out, full of oxygen end essentially enables you to live.
Deoxygenated blood in usually on it's way back to the heart to start the journey all over again.

Oxygenated blood is blood that leaves the lungs and is sent to the heart to be pumped around the body
this blood is red in colour because it contains oxygen that is combined with hemoglobin,,
deoxygenated blood is blood that leaves the capillaries in our body...it is sent to the heart because the oxygen in it is used by our cells and replaced by carbon dioxide...it is taken to the heart and sent to the lungs to be oxygenated again...
oxygenated blood is red in colour, contains oxygen leaves the heart...
deoxygenated blood enters the heart..is darker and contains carbon dioxide...

So simple, Oxygenated blood carried by arteries to various parts of the body so as to provide oxygen to cells for cellular oxidation of food stuffs. The oxygen is taken by blood in the alveoli of the lungs. From the lungs oxygenated blood is returned to left side of heart by pulmonary veins so as to distribute by arteries to all parts of body. The oxygenated blood is bright scarlet colour. The deoxygenated blood is blood laden with CO2. The CO2 is taken by the blood in the tissues which is formed there in the cells as a result of breakdown of Glucose. The dexogenated blood runs in veins and is finally transported to right side of heart. from here it is sent to lungs by pulmonary artery for exchange with incoming oxygen. It dull red or crimson colour.

Oxygenated blood has oxygen in it and the deoxygenated has carbondioxide in it.
