The arteries are blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart to the rest of the body. Arteries branch into smaller arterioles, which branch into capillaries. Capillaries are one-cell thick and have a diameter of about the width of one blood cell. Capillaries form into venules, which form into veins, which carry blood to the heart from the rest of the body.
