What is the small caliber artery called?
Arteries lead to Arterioles, which lead to capillaries which lead to venules which lead to veins that go back to Mr. Heart.
How are arterioles capillaries and venules related?
Arterioles are the small arteries that lead into the capillaries, which connect to cells in the body. Venules are the small veins that the capillaries flow back into, leaving the cells.
What does a capillary lead into?
Capillaries lead to the smallest venules. The capillaries connect arteries and veins.
From capillaries the blood flows into what?
Generally blood from the capillaries flows into venules which lead into larger veins and is then pumped to the heart. However there are a few exceptions where capillaries lead from one artery to another artery, but this only happens in the glomerular capsule of the kidney and the hypothalamus.
What do the organs in circulatory system do?
Heart- The heart pumps the blood throughout the body. Arteries- The arteries lead the blood away from the heart (arteries= away) Veins- The veins lead the blood to the heart Capillaries- The capillaries absorb the nutrients and oxygen Red Blood Cells- The red blood cells act as a transporter
What does the organs do in the circulatory system?

Are veins connected to the capillaries?
In order, your blood follows this general path as it is traveling from arteries to veins: 1. Conducting arteries (aorta) 2. Muscular arteries 3. Arterioles 4. Capillaries 5. Venules 6. Veins
The smaller veins in the leaf connect to the?
The smaller veins in the leaf connect to the larger veins, which lead to the midrib, or central vein. This network of veins helps transport water, nutrients, and sugars to and from the leaf's cells for photosynthesis and other metabolic processes.
What are the functions of venule?
The venule is a very small vein. Arteriesalways take blood away from the heart but these arteries are too large for exchange of gasses and nutrient/wastes to occur. The arteries branch into smaller and smaller arteries. The smallest are called arterioles. The arterioles feed into capillary beds where this exchange can occur as the walls of the capillaries are very thin. Venules lead from the bed into larger and larger veins.
What are the venules functions?

What is the Hierarchy of blood vessels?
Arteries carry blood away from the heart and empty into Arterioles which then lead to Capillaries, the blood then begins its return trip to the heart by entering Venules which empty into Veins which return the blood to the heart.ArteriesArteriolesCapillariesVenulesVeins
How does the blood get oxygen?
by suking it
