Arteries, veins, and capillaries are the three types of blood vessels in the body
Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart, while veins transport deoxygenated blood to the heart
Capillaries are where oxygen and glucose diffuse out of the blood into the cells
Circulation involves pulmonary circulation, carrying deoxygenated blood to the lungs, and systemic circulation, carrying oxygenated blood to the body's cells
The heart's coronary arteries can become blocked, requiring procedures like stents or bypass surgery to restore blood flow and prevent heart attacks.
