Answer :
Answer:
Option B, returning blood to the heart
Explanation:
The arteries are the blood vessels varying in size within the circulatory system responsible for dispersing blood away from the heart.
Blood propelled from the right ventricle enters into the pulmonary artery, sending blood to from the heart to the lungs in order for it to become oxygenated. Oxygenated blood returns to the heart via the pulmonary vein into the left atrium. It dumps into the left ventricle where it is then propelled via the aorta -- the largest artery in human anatomy -- the peripheral or systemic tissues. From the periphery, blood returns to the heart through the various veins of the circulatory system.
One way to remember this function of arteries is to recognize that the word "artery" and "away" both start with the letter A.
Returning blood to the heart is not a feature of the arteries, therefore, option B is the answer.
