Arteries

Arteries are elastic vessels that transport blood away from the heart. Pulmonary arteries carry blood from the heart to the lungs where oxygen is picked up by red blood cells. Systemic arteries deliver blood to the rest of the body.

Veins

Veins are elastic vessels that transport blood to the heart. Veins can be categorized into four main types: pulmonary, systemic, superficial, and deep veins.

Capillaries

Capillaries are extremely small vessels located within the tissues of the body that transport blood from the arteries to the veins. Fluid and gas exchange between capillaries and body tissues takes place at capillary beds.

Sinusoids

Sinusoids are extremely small vessels located within the liver, spleen, and bone marrow.

Arterioles

a small diameter blood vessel that branches out from an artery to a capillary

Leto [7]

The correct answer is B) not asking subjects to agree to participate without first informing them of the nature of the study and possible risks and benefits.

Explanation:

Clinical trials often involve testing treatments such as new vaccines, medicines or therapies. Moreover, these can have different positive or negative effects on participants of the trial. Due to this, one of the basic principles to follow ethical standards for this type of medical research is being completely honest with participants, which includes explaining to them the purpose of the trial, possible risk and also positive benefits.

This is important because in this way participants can make an informed decision on whether to participate or not in the trial which is part of consent. Thus, ethical standards for clinical trials include "not asking subjects to agree to participate without first informing them of the nature of the study and possible risks and benefits".
