What two things help the blood in veins return to the heart?

The blood in veins is at a lower pressure than it is in the arteries. The lower pressure makes for challenges getting that blood back to the heart. As there is less force (pressure) in the veins, blood would pool in the lower parts of the body if there were not mechanisms to prevent that. There are three different things that help blood get back to the heart. The three mechanisms are: venous valves, muscular pumps, and the respiratory pump.

Are blood veins low or high in oxygen?

The blood in veins is deoxygenated (meaning that the oxygen has already been used throughout the body and is returning to the heart, then the lungs, so that the hemoglobin can be replenished with oxygen); whereas, the arteries carry oxygenated blood throughout the body. In summary, the veins carry LESS oxygenated blood than the arteries. HOWEVER, there are two situations where this is not true. This concept is reversed in fetal circulation AND in cardiac collateral circulation; therefore, a tip is to think of blood not in terms of oxygenated or deoxygenated but rather in terms of which way the blood flows from the heart. If blood flows from the heart to the body it is carried by and artery, conversely if it blood is carried from the body back to the heart by the body's veins.
