Question

List five differences between arteries and veins

Answer 1

1 veins collect blood from different organs and send it to the heart.
2 here,blood flows with a lower pressure
3 walls are thin and non elastic
4 have valves to prevent backward flow of water

1 arteries carry blood from heart to the different organs of the body
2 blood flows with high pressure.
3 walls are thick
4 do not hve any valves.

Answer 2

Hey!!

Here's the answer !!


DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ARTERIES AND VEINS :


$\bf{Arteries : }$

✔Arteries carry oxygenated blood , away from the heart (except the pulmonary artery).

✔These are bright red in colour.

✔These are mostly deep seated in the body.

✔ Arteries are thick walled as the tunica media is relatively thick , with smooth muscles and two elastic laminae.

✔Lumen is narrow.

✔These are non valvular .

✔Blood in Arteries flows with more pressure and by jer_ks.

✔ Arteries end in capillaries.


$\bf{Veins : }$

✔Veins carry deoxygenated blood , towards the heart (except the pulmonary veins ) .

✔These are dark in colour.

✔Veins are generally superficial.

✔Veins are thin walled as the tunica media is relatively thin with one elastic lamina and the walls are slightly muscular.

✔Lumen is wide.

✔These are valvular.

✔ Blood in the veins flows steadily with relatively low pressure.

✔veins start as capillaries.
