Detailed explanation-1: -D. Arteries carry blood towards the heart and veins carry blood away from the heart to different organs.
Detailed explanation-2: -Arteries carry oxygenated blood from the heart to all body parts (pulmonary arteries). Whereas veins carry the deoxygenated blood from body parts to the heart ( exception-pulmonary vein)
Detailed explanation-3: -So, the correct answer is arteries are best defined as the vessel which carries blood from one visceral organ to another visceral organ and breaks into capillaries which reunite to form a vein. Note: 1.
Detailed explanation-4: -The arteries (red) carry oxygen and nutrients away from your heart, to your body’s tissues. The veins (blue) take oxygen-poor blood back to the heart. Arteries begin with the aorta, the large artery leaving the heart. They carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to all of the body’s tissues.
Detailed explanation-5: -Arteries carry blood away from the heart and veins carry blood back to the heart. The circulatory system carries oxygen, nutrients, and hormones to cells, and removes waste products, like carbon dioxide.
