This is because arteries have more force going through them than veins do. Arteries have a higher level of pressure as opposed to veins who are more relaxed and just have blood being pushed along through them rather than FORCED.
If you put a vein in place of an artery, it would probably just burst.
What else can I help you with?
What two ways are veins structurally different from arteries?
blood travels away from the heart through arteries and blood travels to the heart through the veins
What do arteries and veins drain?

What two ways are veins structurally different from arteries?

What are the different kinds of blood vessel?
artery, vein, arterioles, venules, capillaries
What are the three different types of vessels?
arteries thick walled and elastic blood vessels capillaries and veins
What are the different kinds of blood?
arteries,veins,and cappillares
How are the structures of arteries capillaries and veins similar and how are they different?
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.

What is the difference between the blood in the arteries and the blood in the veins?
Veins do not pulsate Arteries pulsate Veins can easily collapse Arteries do not collapse (except in shock) Veins contain valves Blood pressure is low in the veins and higher in the arteries
What are the different types of blood vessels and cells?
Answer: the three types of blood vessels are the arteries, veins, and capillaries. *Arteries are the vessels that carry blood away from your heart to the different parts of your body *Veins carries non-oxygenated blood to the heart *Capillary tubes with very thin walls which join arteries to veins
What is the difference between muscle in veins and arteries?
Thee difference between muscle in veins and arteries is that muscles of arteries are thicker compared to those of veins.
