To the Heart:
Vena Cava
Superior vena cava carries deoxygenated blood from the upper body
Inferior vena cava carries deoxygenated blood from the lower body Pulmonary Vein carries oxygenated blood from the lungs
From the Heart:
Pulmonary Artery carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs
Aorta carries oxygenated blood from the heart to the body
Capillaries are extremely small blood vessels. The capillaries transport blood from the arteries to the veins in the human body.
Blood is transported in arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries are the vessels that take blood from the heart. Veins are the vessels that take blood back to the heart, and capillaries are the tiny vessels that attach the arteries and veins. Transport of oxygen and nutrients occurs on the capillary level.

The smallest blood vessels are the capillaries.
Arteries - Transport blood away from the heart Veins - Transport blood to the heart Capillaries - Transport blood to and away from cells
The gills are sided by a series of capillaries. Capillaries are small blood vessels. These capillaries are used to transport oxygen from the gills throughout the fish.
The circulatory system consists of the heart and blood vessels.
Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels.
No. There are three types of blood vessels. They are the arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries are the largest of the blood vessels. Then comes the veins and the smallest are the capillaries.
The circulatory system uses the heart and blood vessels to transport blood throughout the body. The blood vessels include veins, capillaries, and arteries.
The circulatory system uses the heart and blood vessels to transport blood throughout the body. The blood vessels include veins, capillaries, and arteries.
Arteries, veins and capillaries are the three major types of blood vessels. Capillaries are very small and only one cell thick to allow O2/CO2 exchange. Nutrients and wastes are also exchanged.
