Arteries carry oxygenated blood; veins carry de-oxygenated blood.
Arteries have much thicker muscular wall (of muscle and elastic fibres).
Arteries have narrow passageway for blood; veins have a wider passageway.
Arteries have higher blood pressures.
Extra info. if you need it
Veins have flaps of valves while arteries do not.
it is a VEIN <3
segmental artery, renal artery, renal vein, arcule vein, interlobular vein, interlobular artery
the wall of an artery is usuallythicker that the wall of a vein.
Yes, because there is more pressure in the artery than in the vein so the artery has to be big enough to hold the pressure that's inside it.

Artery.
there is no such animal as an artery vein.... you have artery and you have veins... no vessel is both, unless used in a CABG.
It's a vein. The artery going to your head is the carotid artery.

in our body there are both, pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein
Some of the vessels are the basilar artery, internal carotid artery, external carotid artery,, external jugular vein, internal jugular vein, vertebral arteries, common carotid arteries, pulmonary arteries, pulmonary veins, heart, celiac trunk, hepatic vein, renal veins, gonadal vein, common iliac vein, common iliac artery, internal iliac artery, and internal iliac vein. Other vessels are great saphenous vein, femoral artery, femoral vein, popliteal artery, popliteal vein, and small saphenous vein.
simple it is an artery
