BLOOD VESSELS that allow for gas (O₂/ CO₂) and nutrient exchange.
A
arteries
B
veins
C
arterioles
D
capillaries
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Capillaries: These tiny blood vessels have thin walls. Oxygen and nutrients from the blood can move through the walls and get into organs and tissues. The capillaries also take waste products away from your tissues. Capillaries are where oxygen and nutrients are exchanged for carbon dioxide and waste.

Detailed explanation-2: -Alveoli are wrapped in tiny blood vessels called capillaries. The air you breathe in fills these air sacs with oxygen-rich air. This is where the exchange of gases occurs. Carbon dioxide is the gas we naturally produce and need to remove when our bodies use oxygen for energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -Capillaries-these are the sites of gas exchange between the tissues.

Detailed explanation-4: -Capillaries are small, thin blood vessels that connect the arteries and the veins. Their thin walls allow oxygen, nutrients, carbon dioxide and waste products to pass to and from the tissue cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -The circulatory system delivers oxygen and nutrients to cells and takes away wastes. The heart pumps oxygenated and deoxygenated blood on different sides. The types of blood vessels include arteries, capillaries and veins.
