sorry mate arteries are too thin and under our skin tissues...its hard and insane to write a note on them.
Answer:
An artery is a vessel that carries blood away from the heart and toward other tissues and organs. Arteries are part of the circulatory system, which delivers oxygen and nutrients to every cell in the body.Much like the cooling system in your car, which pushes fluid from the radiator, through the engine block and back to the radiator, your circulatory system is a 'closed loop' consisting of your heart, arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules and veins. Blood leaves your heart through your arteries, travels into progressively smaller arterioles, enters thin-walled capillaries (where oxygen and nutrients are delivered to your tissues), flows into progressively larger venules and finally returns to your heart via your veins.
There are two arterial divisions within your body: pulmonary and systemic. 'Pulmo' is the Latin root for 'lung.' The pulmonary division, which contains only the pulmonary arteries, is much shorter than the systemic division. The pulmonary arteries carry blood away from your heart and deliver it to your lungs, where the blood becomes oxygenated. This oxygenated blood then returns to your heart through your pulmonary veins.
