Hey mate!!!
Here is your answer ;
Arteries are the blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the other parts of the body.
Veins are the thin blood vessels which carry the deoxygenated blood from all parts of the body to the heart.
Capillaries are the thin branched blood vessels in which the exchange of food, oxygen, and waste products take place in between the vessel and the cells where respiration occurs. They also form the network between arteries and veins.
