Question

what are the properties of veins

Answer 1

Answer:

Located throughout the body, veins return deoxygenated blood to the heart. Veins have valves to prevent backflow of blood and larger lumens (internal spaces) than arteries. The vein lumen has a smooth endothelium, or inner lining. The endothelium is part of the tunica intima, the innermost layer of the vein wall.

Answer 2

Answer:

Veins have a thicker adventitia and thinner media, higher collagen content, and fewer SMCs compared to arteries. 2,19 The thinner walls and lower magnitudes of experienced pressure cause veins to exhibit higher compliance, higher extensibility, and lower elastic modulus compared to arteries.
