When veins lose their elasticity, they become less able to expand and contract as blood flows through them. This can lead to a condition known as venous insufficiency, where blood pools in the veins, causing swelling, discomfort, and increased risk of varicose veins or blood clots. The overall efficiency of blood circulation may decline, potentially leading to more serious cardiovascular issues. Additionally, the valves within the veins may not function effectively, further exacerbating the problem.

What happens when price goes up in elasticity of demand?
demand goes down
If people have more time to adjust to a price change what happens?
The greater will be the price elasticity of demand.
What are different types of elasticity?
The elasticity of demand refers to how sensitive the demand for a good is to changes in other economic variables. The different types are: price elasticity, income elasticity, cross elasticity and advertisement elasticity.
What are the 3 types of elasticity?
1)price elasticity of demand 2)income elasticity of demand 3)cross elasticity of demand
What causes the arteries to lose there elasticity?
When the artery walls lose their elasticity, this is called arteriosclerosis. When this happens, the body has a tougher time circulating blood.
Which type of blood vessel is more apt to lose its elasticity leading to a discoloration that can be externally observed?
veins, the discoloration that we can see are varicose veins
What causes varicose veins to become visible?
The walls of the affected veins lose their elasticity in response to increased blood pressure. As the vessels weaken, more and more valves are unable to close properly. The veins become larger and wider over time and begin to appear as lumpy
Why do veins become smaller with age?
As people age, the walls of veins may become less elastic and more rigid due to changes in the structural proteins within the vein walls. This can cause the veins to narrow or become smaller in diameter. Additionally, the accumulation of fatty deposits or plaques within the veins can contribute to their narrowing.
What is the amount of muscle in veins and arteries?
The amount of muscle in veins and arteries varies in the sense that arteries are more muscular than veins to give them extra elasticity and strength to deal with surges of blood.
Does your butt lose elasticity when it jiggles or is it getting toner?
If it jiggles, it is losing elasticity. We all will go through that.
When walls of alveoli deteriorate and lose their elasticity?
Emphysema.

What happens when blood pools in the veins?
Varicose veins form when blood pools in the veins.
How are the structures of arteries capillaries and veins similar 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.
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 changes in lung expansion with age?
The lungs lose elasticity so they expand less.
