When a blood vessel is broken what is the first body response?
Hemostasis is the name of the response to broken blood vessels. This response occurs when blood ruptures or leaks out of the body's vessels. The body reacts with a vascular plugging effect that clogs the leakage of the blood vessel.
Why does Aorta have smaller diameter than Vena Cava?
The capillaries are so much smaller than the vena cavas and aorta because these large blood transportation systems are under a lot of pressure. For example, when blood is first emerging from the heart it is being pumped out with extreme amounts of pressure, if the aorta was as small as the capillaries, then it would burst under the pressure causing mass amounts of internal bleeding. On the flipside, the capillaries are farther away from the heart, here the pressure is not nearly as great as it is nearer to the heart, therefore the capillaries do not need to be big, they just need to be large enough to transport nutrients from the blood to the organs.

What happens if a person with O negative blood receives platelets from an O positive person?
The person with the O negative blood has an anti-RH antibody in their blood which will make the O positive platelets received coagulate (neutralizing it since the body sees the antigen RH as a foreign substance) which can cause severe problems depending on how much O positive blood is received.

How is the blood different in the arteries going out to body cells compared to the blood coming back to the heart from the body cells?
I'm no anonomy expert, but the blood carried from the heart to the body is oxygen rich while the blood coming from the body has had it's oxygen absorbed so it goes through the heart to the lungs, where it gets oxygen, back to the heart and out to the body again.
Is blood coming to the heart oxygenated?
Yes blood is oxygenated then it is pumped to all parts of the body including the heart.
