Veins
B
Capillaries
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Arterioles connect with even smaller blood vessels called capillaries. Through the thin walls of the capillaries, oxygen and nutrients pass from blood into tissues, and waste products pass from tissues into blood. From the capillaries, blood passes into venules, then into veins to return to the heart.

Detailed explanation-2: -Venules are small veins that collect blood from the capillaries and return it to the larger veins, whereas capillaries form a network between arterioles and venules, and provide a path for nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and wastes exchange between the bloodstream and tissues.
