In an average person, all the blood vessels, veins, arteries, and capillaries lined up one to the other can go around the world at least twice.
60,000 miles, or the equivalent of 2½ times around the world!
Your arteries carry blood from the heart to all corners of the body. The aorta is the main artery leaving the heart, with well known branches like the carotid artery (to the head), the femoral arteries (to the legs), the brachial ateries (to the arms). The other main artery from the heart is the pulmonary artery which goes to the lungs to get oxygen.
It takes blood about one minute to make one complete circuit throughout your body. But this is only for the major arteries and veins. The average person has enough blood vessels, if you include all the venules, arterioles, and capillaries, to go around the world twice. So, then it would take much longer if included them too!
Apart from sketch maps, maps are to scale. The distance on a map is a ratio of the distance in the real world.

if you attach your veins and arteries together,it will go around the world
If you laid all of your bodies veins and arteries in a line it would circle the world twice.
No I don't believe so, I think it is your veins and arteries that can go around the world twice.
Blood vessels are found everywhere in your body, from the largest arteries and veins, to the smallest capillaries. When they are all added together into one line, they could stretch around the world twice! That means you have over 50,000 miles of blood vessels in your body! Wow!!!

Let's put it this way - if all your blood vessels were laid out end-to-end the would stretch around the would nearly 2-and-a-half times. That, by the way is true... but don't ask who tested it.Types Of Blood:1. Artery2. Vein3. Capillaries
The circumference of the world is 40000 km and a can is 11cm long then: there are 9091 cans per km and about 364 million cans to stretch around the world.
answer
The longer the vessel, the greater the resistence encountered.
a lot.
