Arteries- arterioles - capillaries - vanuoles -veins

Arteries should be first because they have the most pressure. Arteries like the aorta transport oxygenated blood away from the heart(except the pulmonary trunk)
Arterioles are like arteries but with less caliber. They are branches of those arteries and lead to capillaries.
capillaries are very tiny blood vessels that supply the tissues of the body with blood( that contains nutrients oxygen, water, etc), and also brings the waste from the tissues to be removed.
Venules
are small vessels that drain blood from capillaries and into veins.
Veins transport deoxygenated blood to the heart
