When the person is young, the tissue inside an artery is smooth, but as we age, it progressively becomes rugged and this is the beginning of the atherosclerosis.
The artery becomes rigid as we age.
Arteries and nerves have nothing in common with each other. Arteries carry oxygenated blood from the Heart to the body, where as the nerves carry electrical impulses from the Brain. Arteries and nerves are not hard to tell apart, nor are they easy to see. Nerves are microscopic so they are very hard to see with the naked eye. The arteries are very deep within our bodies which makes them hard to see. To answer your question Arteries are like large tubes that are red in colour where as nerves are usually depicted as thread like organisms that are usually white or silver in colour.

The arteries
The arteries that actually serve the heart itelf are known as coronary arteries.
Arterial stiffness is a general term for the elasticity (or compliance) of the arteries. The hardening or stiffening of the arteries is called arteriosclerosis. The stiffness of arteries influences how hard the heart has to work to pump blood through the body.

He blows so hard it injures the arteries of his temple.
Arteries carry blood at high pressure, simply because they are linked directly to the heart and lungs.
Indirectly perhaps, but it is the heart and the system of veins and arteries which are the problem in high blood pressure; the heart is pumping extra hard and/or the arteries/veins are restricted by blockage.
Your arteries are lined with smooth muscle tissues that regulate blood flow by contracting to decease the diameter of the arteries. This in turn causes the pressure and flow of blood to increase or stay the same if the heart is pumping faster. The hardening is cause by smooth muscle tissue becoming hard after constant stress. It is typical cause by being overweight because the heart and arteries have to work harder to pump blood all over the body.

I have two questions that are almost the same and i dont know with one to answer with arteries. the arteries the arteries the arteries
Atheroma is the deposition of hard yellow plaque in the inner most layers of the arteries which maybe due to high level of fatty and fibres deposition in the blood
