Three types of blood vessels are found in the human body: arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries typically carry oxygenated blood away from the heart with the exception of the pulmonary arteries, which carry deoxygenated blood to the lungs. Veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart. Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels and they allow various substances such as oxygen, carbon dioxide and nutrients, to pass from the bloodstream into the tissues of the body.
