Answer 2

Answer:

Arteriosclerosis is an illness due to the blocking of arteries due to ageing.

Atherosclerosis is caused by the failure of control over the cholesterol and fat contents in the body.

Explanation:

• Arteriosclerosis is not having any exact treatment as it is caused by ageing and hardening of the arteries, and swollen walls of arteries.
• It occurs due to damaged elasticity.
• As it advances the arteries grow thicker and harder.
• They cannot resist high blood pressure.
• Thus, insufficient blood flow will cause many other problems related to the heart.
• Atherosclerosis is a fatal condition of the heart.
• This happened due to the plaque depositions around the waller of arteries.
• As the cholesterol deposits and fats deposits increase these block the arteries and break down due to the pressure of the flow of blood.  

Hence, arteriosclerosis is due to ageing and atherosclerosis is due to depositions of fats and cholesterol in the arteries.
