Solution

The correct option is A Arteries
The arteries are major blood vessels connected to our heart. The aorta is the main artery that carries oxygen-rich blood from the left side of the heart to different parts of the body. The pulmonary artery carries blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs to pick up a fresh supply of oxygen. The smaller branches of arteries are called arterioles and capillaries.
