Best Answer

Veins are all throughout the body. Their main function is to carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart so the blood can receive oxygen again and be carried out via the arteries. Veins are seen as blue- because of the lack of O2. Arteries have the pulse because they must pump blood to every piece of tissue in your body.

Hope this helps..,.
