Answered step-by-step

Blood is pumped away from the heart in arteries and returns to the heart in veins.

Arteries: These blood vessels carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to various parts of the body. The main artery, the aorta, branches into smaller arteries that distribute oxygen and nutrients to tissues and organs.
Veins: After delivering oxygen and nutrients, blood becomes deoxygenated and returns to the heart through veins. Major veins, such as the superior and inferior vena cavae, bring this oxygen-poor blood back to the right atrium of the heart, completing the circulatory loop.

This system ensures continuous circulation of blood, providing essential substances to cells while removing waste products.
