Answer 1

answere

All arteries have relatively thick walls that can withstand the high pressure of blood ejected from the heart. ... An elastic artery is also known as a conducting artery, because the large diameter of the lumen enables it to accept a large volume of blood from the heart and conduct it to smaller branches.

Answer 2

Answer:

Option (d) The thick walls of arteries helps them to easily maintain and sustain the high pressure of blood flowing inside them. The blood is pumped to all parts of the body by the heart at high pressure because it has to effectively reach every single cell of the body.
