hello mates⚘

artries

  • Arteries are blood vessels responsible for carrying oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to the body. 
  • Arteries carry blood away from the heart .
  • Arteries are smaller, have thicker walls in proportion to their lumen and carry blood under higher pressure than veins.
  • arteries are more flexible than veins.

veins

  • Veins are less flexible than arteries.
  • Veins are blood vessels that carry blood low in oxygen from the body back to the heart for reoxygenation.
  • veins are generally larger in diameter, carry more blood volume and have thinner thinner walls.
  • the veins carry it back to the heart.
