Answer:A

Explanation: Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to other body parts. It further divides into smaller arterioles which then meets the capillaries that forms a network between the arterioles and the smaller portions of the veins called venules. The venues then branch to the veins which carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart
