The three types of blood vessels are :
(i) Arteries: They carry oxygenated blood from the heart and transport it to organs.
(ii) Veins : They carry deoxygenated blood from organs and take this blood to the heart.
(iii) Capillaries: Arteries and veins divide to form arterioles and venules. The nutrients, hormones and gases can diffuse into the tissue cells through the walls of capillaries and vice versa.
