What would happen if your arteries were missing?

Your heart pumps out blood in spurts. The muscles in your arteries smooth out your blood flow so that by the time your blood reaches your capillaries, your blood flows smooth and at low pressure. If they did not do their job, you would have internal bleeding.


Why atherosclerosis in artery not in vein?

The blood in veins has already passed through the capillaries which are smaller. anything that passes through the capillaries is too small to form one, and if it was big enough to clause blockage, that would occur in the arteries, before it reached the capillaries

What would happen if you didnt have capillaries?

If we didn't have capillaries, we would die. This is because CAPILLARIES are the passageways between the arteries (carrying oxygen- rich blood AWAY from the heart) and the Veins (carrying oxygen- poor blood back INto the heart). Capillaries come in close contact with the body's organs. They exchange their oxygen- rich blood (provided by the arteries) with the organ's oxygen- poor blood (containing carbon dioxide). Thus, the body's organ supply of oxygen- rich blood is replenished. Then, the capillaries give their oxygen- poor blood (from the organs) to the Veins, which bring the blood back to the heart, so it can be filled with oxygen again. It's all a big cycle, and our capillaries play a big role in this cycle. The heart, blood, and blood vessels (arteries, veins, and CAPILLARIES) are all a part of the amazing Cardiovascular System! (Also known as Circulatory system) We really need those Capillaries !! So... What would happen, you ask? Well, the blood in the arteries an the blood in the veins would mix. That is very bad. Our body could not survive if oxygen-rich blood and oxygen- poor blood mixed. We have the capillaries to ensure they never interact!!


Would you expect much of the exchange between red blood cells and body cells in arteries or veins?

The exchange between red blood cells and body cells primarily occurs in the capillaries, not in arteries or veins. Arteries carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to tissues, while veins return oxygen-poor blood back to the heart. In the capillaries, oxygen and nutrients diffuse from the red blood cells into body cells, and waste products like carbon dioxide move into the blood. Therefore, significant exchange does not happen in arteries or veins.


Why does diffusion happen in capillaries?

Capillaries must allow diffusion too allow for exchange of oxygen. Without oxygen, the eventual consequence would be death.


Why is the pulse felt in the arteries and not in the veins?

The arteries are the vessels that lead from the heart. When the heart sqeezes (beats) the blood is forced out into the arteries causing an increase in pressure. This pressure increase is what you feel as the pulse. The blood must travel through the body, into the capillaries and into the veins. By the time the blood has traveled that distance, much of it's initial pressure has declined.


What will happen if you put steam in a balloon then put it in the refrigerator what will happen?

As the steam cools, the pressure will drop, and the balloon will get smaller. ------------------------- it pops i tried it loads
