In the body arteries are tubes that carry the blood from the heart out to the rest of the body, where nutrients are picked up by the cells. After all the nutrients are gone from the blood, veins are the tubes that carry the blood back to the lungs, where it gets more oxygen, and then on to the heart, where it gets pumped out again through the arteries. In geography, arteries are main highways that carry traffic to and from major population points, or main streets that carry people from one end of the city to the other.
arteries pump blood away from the heart, veins pump blood to the heart.
muscular arteries
Arteries do neither
The arteries
The arteries that actually serve the heart itelf are known as coronary arteries.
popliteal arteries (a portion of the femoral arteries near the surface of the legs)
to carry blood to and from the kidneys.
Coronary arteries nourish and provide blood and nutrients to the heart. They are often located at the base of the aorta.
the major function is for the arteries to pump the blood away fom the heart to go to the other body systems.
They pump blood trough our body
Parts of the body do not have responsibilities they have functions. The function of the arteries is to transport blood.
The structures of arteries, capillaries, and veins are all different, because of their different functions. The only way that they are similar is because they are hollow, and have some elasticity.

NB Arteries and veins are usually thought of as organs
Deoxygenated With the exception of the pulmonary vessels, veins carry deoxygenated blood; arteries carry oxygenated blood.
The main kind of blood vessels are Veins,Arteries, and Capillaries. Arteries carry oxygenated blood to other organs. Veins carry blood with carbon dioxide back to the heart. Capillaries connect Veins and Arteries and let oxygen out to the organs and carbon dioxide in to the veins.
They are critical chemicals in our body that can help reduce inflammation, are needed for cell membranes, for nervous system development, and for many other functions in the body. It will not clog your arteries and there is no adverse effects.
Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels. They connect arteries and veins. They are the site of gas, waste, and nutrient exchange between the blood and the body tissues.
