Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Arteries transport blood away from the heart and branch into smaller vessels, forming arterioles. Arterioles distribute blood to capillary beds, the sites of exchange with the body tissues. Capillaries lead back to small vessels known as venules that flow into the larger veins and eventually back to the heart.
Detailed explanation-2: -How does blood flow through capillary beds? Blood flows into a capillary bed through an arteriole. The blood passes through a network of microvascular capillaries to exchange gas and nutrients, and then it passes out through the venule.
