Explanation:
With this type of bleeding, the blood is typically bright red to yellowish in colour, due to the high degree of oxygenation. A wound to a major artery could result in blood 'spurting' in time with the heartbeat, several meters and the blood volume will rapidly reduce. This blood is flowing from a damaged vein.
You can recognize a vein bleeding if blood flows slowly out of the wound.
Veins are the blood vessels that carry blood from various parts of the body to the heart. They lie close to our skin and have thin walls.
Blood from veins flows at a much lower pressure than from the arteries due to a reduction in pressure by the time blood reaches the veins through the vast network of capillaries.
Bleeding from a vein is considered less dangerous as compared to arterial bleeding. We can control the bleeding by pressing the wound gently or by raising the wounded part to keep it above the heart or a tourniquet can be applied to the wound.
Thus, the blood comes out at a slow rate and the color of the blood is dark red.
