elasticity
An elastic artery, e.g. aorta
Elastic fibres
The aorta is the largest artery.
The Aorta is the biggest artery, and the Superior and Inferior Vena Cava are the largest veins.
The AORTA, which is a wide elastic vessel connected to the left ventricle of the heart, carries blood to almost all of the other arteries of the body. The aorta is the largest artery in the body.It connects directly to the hearts left ventricle. it splits into smaller arteries, arterioles, and finally into tiny capillaries where nutrients and oxygen transfer to the cells and waste products and carbon dioxide move into the blood which carries them through veins to be eventually eliminated in the lungs, kidneys, and liver.
No, it is an elastic artery.

The Aorta is the biggest artery in the human body
The Aorta is the biggest artery, and the Superior and Inferior Vena Cava are the largest veins.
The artery with the thickest tunica media is the aorta. This layer contains a high proportion of smooth muscle and elastic fibers, which enables the aorta to withstand and accommodate the high pressure of blood ejected from the heart. The thick tunica media also plays a crucial role in maintaining blood pressure and facilitating the elastic recoil of the artery during the cardiac cycle.
