Arteries are thicker because they receive more pressure from the blood being pumped against the walls of the arteries. Veins receive less pressure than the arteries, so their walls are thinner.

Answer:

Veins have thin walls as compared to the arteries

Explanation:

The blood in the arteries flow with the very high pressure hence the arteries should have the power to withstand that high pressure so they are thick whereas the blood will not flow with very high force in veins so they have thin walls compared to that of the arteries
