Detailed explanation-1: -Your inferior vena cava, your body’s largest vein, carries oxygen-depleted blood back to your heart from the lower part of your body (below your diaphragm). Your superior vena cava, your second biggest vein, brings oxygen-poor blood from your upper body to your heart.
Detailed explanation-2: -Capillaries transport blood between arteries and veins. Arteries are the largest blood vessels with the thickest walls, and capillaries are the smallest. Arteries are only located deep inside your muscles, but capillaries are inside tissues all over your body.
Detailed explanation-3: -Largest blood vessel in the body is carotid systemic or dorsal aorta. Dorsal Aorta: Dorsal aorta arises from the left ventricle of heart. It travels just beneath the vertebra and above the dorsal surface of the kidney.
Detailed explanation-4: -Oxygen-poor blood returns from the body to the heart through the superior vena cava (SVC) and inferior vena cava (IVC), the two main veins that bring blood back to the heart.
