Arteries have more muscular walls than veins and capillaries. This allows the force needed to move blood to the entire body.
Smooth muscle
The Arteries
No, skeletal muscle tissues are located in the skeletal muscles and not blood vessels. Blood vessels are usually made of smooth epithelial cell tissue and not more on muscle.
The coronary arteries are the blood vessels that bring oxygenated blood to the muscle of the heart.
Blood vessels are surrounded by smooth muscle. This is often known as visceral muscle. This type of muscle also lines the blood vessels and internal organs.
Vasospasm-- Narrowing of a blood vessel caused by a spasm of the smooth muscle of the vessel wall.
