write any six differences between artery and vein
Answers
Arteries are blood vessels responsible for carrying oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to the body.
Veins are blood vessels that carry blood low in oxygen from the body back to the heart for reoxygenation.
One of the major differences between arteries and veins is that the arteries carry oxygenated blood to all body parts, whereas veins carry the deoxygenated blood to the heart.
Veins carry blood towards the heart, and arteries carry it towards.
Arteries transport blood away from the heart. Veins return blood back toward the heart. Capillaries surround body cells and tissues to deliver and absorb oxygen, nutrients, and other substances.
