How does blood move in the arteries?

Answer 1

The answer is: through capillaries

Answer 2

From the heart, blood travels through the Aorta, to arteries --> arterioles --> capillaries (which combine to form venules). The venules unite to form veins --> the superior/inferior vena cava (which are actually large veins).

Answer 3

The movement of blood is caused by the pumping of the heart. The heart is a muscle.

Arteries are tough on the outside and smooth on the inside. An artery actually has three layers: an outer layer of tissue, a muscular middle, and an inner layer of epithelial cells. The muscle in the middle is elastic and very strong. The inner layer is very smooth so that the blood can flow easily with no obstacles in its path.

The muscular wall of the artery helps the heart pump the blood. When the heart beats, the artery expands as it fills with blood. When the heart relaxes, the artery contracts, exerting a force that is strong enough to push the blood along. This rhythm between the heart and the artery results in an efficient circulation system.

Answer 4

In arteries it always travels away from the heart.

In veins it always travels towards the heart.
