Question

Why is artery more elastic and contractile than a vein?

Answer 1

✔✅As heart pumps out blood through arteries to different parts of the body, thereby blood flows in high pressure in arteries and can withstand ,so its more elastic than veins. If they are not elastic than they would rupture due to pressure. For smooth functioning they are more elastic than veins.
