Valves
The blood in veins is not under direct pressure from the heart. It has little valves inside to prevent blood from flowing backwards away from the heart. These valves inside the veins prevent the backflow of blood in veins. They encourage the one-directional flow of blood to the heart.

veins are large, thin-walled blood vessels that carry blood to the heart!!!!
Valves in the veins prevent the blood from flowing backward or from pooling.
Veins have valves which stop the blood from flowing backwards
Nothing, it is only pressure that keeps blood moving in the right direction in arteries. Veins have valves that prevent backflow of blood, but arteries do not.
Veins have valves that prevent blood from pooling up in your extremities.
In the heart/arteries, the Aortic valve prevents blood from flowing backwards. In the systemic veins, eustachean valves prevent the backwards flow of blood.
no
veins have valves in them that prevent backflow
In the large veins. Because in the large veins the blood must fight the gravity, the blood is flowing up, there are valves in them to prevent the blood to fall down again.
Valves in the veins prevent the backflow of blood by closing to keep the blood moving in one direction towards the heart.
