$\huge{\mathfrak{Answer}}$

Veins-

⚫️Carry blood from the tissues of the body back to the heart

⚫️Are usually positioned closer beneath the surface of the skin

are less muscular than arteries, but ⚫️Contain valves to help keep blood flowing in the right direction, usually toward the heart

⚫️Would collapse if blood flow stops.

Arteries-

⚫️Carry blood away from the heart to the tissues of the body

⚫️Are usually positioned deeper within the body

⚫️Are more muscular than veins, which helps in transporting blood that is full of oxygen efficiently to the tissues

⚫️Would generally remain open if blood flow stopped, due to their thick muscular layer.
