Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Nutrients and waste exchange between the blood and body tissues occurs at the capillary bed. Venules serve as exit vessels in the capillary bed of various organs and unite to form veins, which return the blood to the heart.

Detailed explanation-2: -Capillaries are the blood vessels that reach out to small cells and tissue, helping in the exchange of materials like oxygen, carbon dioxide, and waste. Capillaries are semipermeable so that material can be exchanged with surrounding cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Lymph capillaries help keep the overall fluid balance in your body. Throughout your body, interstitial fluid (fluid found in the spaces around cells) leaks from blood capillaries into your tissues. Lymph capillaries pick up this fluid and help return it to your circulatory system.
