Blood pressure
Blood pressure refers to the blood flow and resistance in the arteries. The device used to measure blood pressure is the sphygmomanometer or sphygmometer.
Thin arteries are called arterioles. They are smaller branches of arteries that lead to capillaries and play a crucial role in regulating blood flow and pressure within the circulatory system. Arterioles have muscular walls that can constrict or dilate to control blood flow to various tissues and organs.
The innermost layer of arteries is called the intima. It is composed of a single layer of endothelial cells that help regulate blood flow and prevent clot formation.
That's called the circulatory system.
muscular arteries
No, veins have the valves, arteries don't.
Arteries branch into smaller vessels called arterioles. Arterioles are small diameter blood vessels that connect arteries to capillaries. They play a crucial role in regulating blood flow and blood pressure within the circulatory system.
