A
Excretory System
B
Pulmonary System
C
Endocrine System
D
Circulatory or Cardiovascular System
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -The circulatory system (cardiovascular system) pumps blood from the heart to the lungs to get oxygen. The heart then sends oxygenated blood through arteries to the rest of the body. The veins carry oxygen-poor blood back to the heart to start the circulation process over.

Detailed explanation-3: -Systemic circulation carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle, through the arteries, to the capillaries in the tissues of the body. From the tissue capillaries, the deoxygenated blood returns through a system of veins to the right atrium of the heart.

Detailed explanation-4: -The oxygenated blood is brought back to the heart by the pulmonary veins which enter the left atrium. From the left atrium blood flows into the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps the blood to the aorta which will distribute the oxygenated blood to all parts of the body.

Detailed explanation-5: -The Pulmonary Arteries These are the only arteries that carry deoxygenated blood, and are considered arteries because they carry blood away from the heart. The short, wide vessel branches into the left and right pulmonary arteries that deliver deoxygenated blood to the respective lungs.
