Artery - Carries oxygenated blood (apart from pulmonary artery which goes to the lungs to collect oxygen) away from the heart to other parts of the body. They have thick muscle walls and small spaces for blood to pass through.

Vein - Carries de-oxygenated blood (apart from the pulmonary vein which goes from the lungs back to the heart) towards the heart, from other parts of the body. They have thin muscle walls and a large space for the blood to travel through.

Capillaries - Allow oxygenated blood to enter muscles and other body parts, and allow de-oxygenated blood back in, in order to carry it back to the heart. Very small with thin walls to allow movement of blood cells through the walls.

Hope this helps
