Solution

The correct option is C Hepatic portal vein
The liver is connected to two large blood vessels, the hepatic artery, and the portal vein. The hepatic artery carries blood from the aorta, whereas the portal vein carries blood containing digested nutrients from the gastrointestinal tract to the spleen and the liver.
So, the correct answer is option B.
