Why arterial blood is more alkaline than venous blood?

Menstural bleeding is predominantly arterial or venous?
Menstrual bleeding is predominantly venous.
Do the arteries that carry blood from the heart to the lungs contain arterial or venous blood?
arterial
What are the two examples of blood flow?
venous and arterial
Is venous bleeding dark red?
Yes, venous bleeding is typically dark red in color. This is because venous blood, which returns to the heart, has a higher concentration of carbon dioxide and lower levels of oxygen compared to arterial blood. The darker color is a result of this lower oxygen content. In contrast, arterial blood is usually bright red due to its high oxygen content.
Arterial system has one venous system has two?
brachiocephalic
Why is arterial bleeding more serious than venous or capillary bleeding?
Arterial bleeding is more serious than venous or capillary bleeding because arteries carry blood with higher pressure and oxygen content, causing them to spurt or gush out more rapidly. This can lead to a faster blood loss and potential life-threatening situations if not controlled promptly. Arterial bleeding can result in more severe blood loss and tissue damage compared to venous or capillary bleeding.
Arterial blood tends to be what while venous blood is what?
Arterial blood is under direct pressure from the heart and is oxygen rich, which venous blood is oxygen poor and is under low pressure.
What does arterial blood obtained by mistake look like?
Arterial blood obtained by mistake typically appears bright red due to its high oxygen content, as opposed to venous blood, which is darker and more bluish. It is also more pulsatile and may froth slightly when exposed to air because of the higher pressure in the arteries. Additionally, arterial blood tends to flow more forcefully than venous blood when drawn.
The connection points between the arterial and venous systems are called?
Capillaries
