Why do arteries stretch?
Arteries are high-pressure vessels. However, this pressure is not constant. As the heart pumps blood into the arteries, the pressure dramatically increases. They must stretch to accommodate this change, or risk rupturing.
Can veins and arteries stretch the same distance as the world?
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.
What do arteries close to the heart need to be able to compensate for?
Pressure changes
Did galen discover that blood passes through the veins and arteries?
His most important discovery was that arteries carry blood although he did not discover circulation.

What is the expanding of the arteries after each heartbeat called?
The expanding of the arteries after each heartbeat is called "arterial pulse." This phenomenon occurs as blood is ejected from the heart into the arteries, causing them to stretch and then recoil. The pulse can be felt at various points on the body, such as the wrist or neck, and is an important indicator of cardiovascular health.

What are stretch receptors?
These Receptors are present in Carotid and Aortic Arteries of Tetrapods and they have a vital role in regulation of Blood Pressure.
How does the structure of the arteries enable them to withstand high pressure?
Arteries have thick muscular walls that are able to contract and relax to help regulate blood pressure. Additionally, the walls are made of strong, elastic fibers like collagen and elastin that allow them to stretch and recoil in response to the force of the blood flow, which helps them withstand high pressure without rupturing.
Is it more important to stretch before or after exercise?
It is important to stretch before and after you exercise because if you dont you will get sore after.
