Arterioles do not have valves; valves are typically found in veins to prevent backflow of blood. Arterioles are small blood vessels that regulate blood flow and pressure by constricting or dilating. They do not pulsate like arteries, but the blood flow through them can still exhibit a steady rhythmic pressure due to the heart's pumping action. Instead of pulsating, arterioles maintain a continuous flow of blood.
