Explanation:

STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF BLOOD VESSELS

Learning Objectives

By the end of this section, you will be able to:

Compare and contrast the three tunics that make up the walls of most blood vessels

Distinguish between elastic arteries, muscular arteries, and arterioles on the basis of structure, location, and function

Describe the basic structure of a capillary bed, from the supplying metarteriole to the venule into which it drains

Explain the structure and function of venous valves in the large veins of the extremities

Blood is carried through the body via blood vessels. An artery is a blood vessel that carries blood away from the heart, where it branches into ever-smaller vessels. Eventually, the smallest arteries, vessels called arterioles, further branch into tiny capillaries, where nutrients and wastes are exchanged, and then combine with other vessels that exit capillaries to form venules, small blood vessels that carry blood to a vein, a larger blood vessel that returns blood to the heart.
