Solution

The correct option is B
Artery, arterioles, capillaries, venules, veins

Arteries carry blood away from the heart and into the organs – where it splits into arterioles, and further into capillaries. These then join to form venules, which join again to form veins, which carry blood back from an organ to the heart.)
