From the capillaries, blood passes into venules, then into veins to return to the heart.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -What do capillaries do? Capillaries complete the circulatory system by connecting arteries to veins: Arteries carry oxygen-rich blood from the heart to your organs. Veins help the body remove low-oxygen blood and waste.
