What are the parts of the blood vessels?
The answer is an artery(arteries), a vein(veins), and a capillary(capillaries)
What connect artery and veins?
The capillary beds in the tissues, where they connect the arterioles and venules together, which then fuse to form the arteries and veins.
Can you feel pulse in veins but not in arteries?
Veins take blood back to the heart. So the pluse created from the heart beating is felt as a surge of blood in an artery. by the time the surge of blood has passed through the network of arterioles and capillaries the surge has died down.
How is the structure of veins and arteries related to their fuction?
compare and contrast the structure of a vein and artery
What are the smallest vessels that connect veins arteries?
Capillaries
The structure of a lymphatic vessel is most similar to that of a artery?
the walls of lymphatic vessels are similar to those of veins
What blood vessel connects the artery and vein?
The capillaries are the blood vessels that connect arteries and veins. Capillaries are the site of gas exchange in the body.
Does the artery have smooth muscles or the veins?
artery
What are the two main types of blood vessels?
Arteries and Veins. Arteries carry blood away from the body and veins bring it back. There are also Capillaries which link the two together.
What is the structure of microcirculation?
Microcirulation consists of terminal arterioles connected to capillaries. The capillaries are connected to post-capillary venules which are connected to the veins,
When blood within the pulmonary capillary network is oxygenated it travels to the heart via which structure?
It comes back through the pulmonary veins. Veins always carry blood TO the heart. This is the only case where veins are high in oxygen.
Is a capillary a vessle?
A capillary is the smallest blood vessel. It connects arteries and veins.
