The correct flow of blood as it moves from the heart to the tissues and back to the heart is as follows:
3 Capillaries (oxygen and nutrients are exchanged with tissues)
1 Arterioles (small branches of arteries that deliver blood to capillaries)
2 Muscular arteries (carry blood away from the heart to arterioles)
4 Elastic arteries (large arteries that expand and contract to accommodate blood flow)
6 Venules (small veins that collect blood from capillaries)
5 Veins (carry blood from venules back to the heart)
Which of the following is the flow of blood as blood moves from the heart to the tissues and back to the heart?
1 Arterioles
2 Muscular arteries
3 Capillaries
4 Elastic arteries
5 Veins
6 Venules
