Blood vessels are intricate network of hollow tubes that transport blood throughout the entire body.

There are 4 types of blood vessels which are arteries, veins, capillaries and sinusoids

ArteriesArteries are elastic vessels that transports blood away from the heart.

VeinsVeins are elastic vessels that transport blood to the heart.

CappilariesCappilaries are extremely small vessels located within the tissues of the body that transport blood from the arteries to the veins

There are 4 main blood vessels connected to the heart which consists of:- inferior vena cave- superior vena cava- aorta- pulmonary artery

Large vein that carries de-oxygenated blood from the lower half of the body into the right atrium of the heart.

Short vein that carries deoxygenated blood from the upper half of the body to the heart’s right atrium .

Distributes oxygenated blood to all parts of the body through the systemic circulation

Carries deoxygenated blood to the corresponding lungs .
