Answer:

Arteries carry oxygenated blood from the heart to various parts of the body, whereas veins moves deoxygenated blood toward the heart.

Explanation:

The circulatory system is fundamental to the functioning of the body, as it's responsible for the blood to reach the whole body.

This system is composed of the heart, the lungs and the blood vessels.

Arteries are the blood vessels that come from the heart and carry oxygenated blood to the organs. Veins, do the exact opposite, as they carry deoxygenated blood from the organs to the heart. Arteries and veins join through capillaries, which are the smallest blood vessels in the body.
