Question

characterstics of arteries

Answer 1

Answer:

Characteristic Features of Arteries:

• Arteries are thick-walled, being uniformly thicker than the accompanying veins, except for the arteries within the cranium and vertebral canal where these are thin.

• Their lumen is smaller than that of the accompanying veins,

• Arteries have no valves.

• An artery is usually accompanied by veins and nerves, and the three of them together form the neurovascular bundle which is surrounded and supported by a fibro-areolar sheath.
