Because blood in veins is under lower pressure than in arteries, so they do not need as many collagen fibres. In addition, as veins already have a wide diameter, they do not need to dilate that much hence they also dont contract that much (as opposed to artieries), so they have less elastic recoil, thus they have less elastic fibres. :)
true
Arteries contain elastic fibres. These are particularly abundant in the large conducting arteries, such as the aorta.
Elastic Connective Tissue
The wall of the arterioles contain less elastic fibers but more smooth muscle cells than that of the aorta and arteries.

the three basic types of fibers that are found in connective tissue are collagen fibers, elastic fibers, and reticular fibers
yes the dermis contains both elastic and collagen fibers
The three types of protein fibers in connective tissue are collagen, elastic, and reticular fibers. Collagen fibers provide strength and support, elastic fibers allow for stretch and recoil, and reticular fibers form a network to support other cells and structures.
true
Collagen fibers, elastic fibers, and reticular fibers are the three main types of fibers found in connective tissue. Collagen fibers provide strength and support, elastic fibers offer flexibility, and reticular fibers form a network-like structure to support various tissues and organs.
The dermis contains mainly collagen fibers, which provide strength and support to the skin. Additionally, there are elastic fibers that allow the skin to stretch and recoil. Finally, reticular fibers can also be found in the dermis, providing a supportive framework for the skin cells.
The fibroblast is the most common cell that creates collagen.
Reticular layer
Arteries contain elastic fibres. These are particularly abundant in the large conducting arteries, such as the aorta.
The two major components of the matrix are ground substances and fibers. Fibers can be broken into the classes; collagen, elastic and reticular fibers.
The dermis contains dense irregular connective tissue with elastic fibers and collagen type I. It also contains very few fibroblast cells.
