Veins are not typically buried deep in the tissue; they are usually located just beneath the skin's surface or within muscle layers. In some areas of the body, veins can be found closer to the surface, while in others, they may be deeper, particularly in the legs and arms. Their positioning allows them to efficiently transport deoxygenated blood back to the heart. Overall, the depth of veins varies depending on their location and function.

What are the lyrics to the song sung by George Beverly Shea with the words 'They are buried down deep in the sea'?

I have heard it by John Webb. I assume these will be the same as GBS. My sins have been buried, have been buried down deep in the sea; My heart therefore voicing, it's praises rejoicing! A servant of sin I no longer shall be. Now the burdens I carried have been lost every one; and my sins which were many are forgotten and gone. Refrain They are buried down deep, they are buried down deep, They are buried down deep in the sea My sins have been buried, have been buried down deep in the sea; And now I am singing, The joybells are ringing since Jesus has pardoned and sanctified me; Oh what marvelous Grace to my soul is revealed, from the wounds of transgression now my life has been healed!


Why is gold so close to the surface?

Gold is often found close to the Earth's surface because it is a heavy metal that doesn't easily break down in the environment, so it doesn't get buried deep over time. Gold is also often associated with quartz veins and other rocks that are found in the upper crust of the Earth.

Rocks buried deep underground must do what before they are weathered or eroded?

Rocks buried deep underground must be uplifted to the surface before they can be weathered or eroded. This uplift can happen through tectonic movements, erosion of overlying rocks, or other geological processes that bring the rocks closer to the Earth's surface. Once at the surface, rocks are exposed to weathering processes such as wind, water, and ice that break them down over time.

How do veins work in relation to the heart and carrying blood to and from the body?

Blood is pumped by your heart and circulates around your body in arteries and veins. Arteries take oxygenated blood away from the heart and the veins return blood back to the heart and lungs for refuelling. In the leg there are 2 sets of veins, the deep (invisible) component and the superficial (under the skin) veins. The deep veins can be thought of as the 'motorway' of return of blood to the heart and the superficial veins the 'slip roads' which feed blood into the deep veins. Other communications (perforating veins) also exist between the deep and superficial vein systems. Blood flow is maintained by muscle contraction 'the muscle pump'. Contraction of the muscles forces blood up the leg. When the muscle relaxes small valves close and stop the blood being pulled back towards the foot due to the effect of gravity. If the veins enlarge or the valves fail to function normally the blood flow becomes abnormal swinging both up and down the leg. The volume and pressure of blood within the vein network increases. This is called 'reflux' and is the first change that can lead to the development of symptoms and also the typical changes of superficial venous hypertension. Visible large bulging varicose veins may then develop. Sometimes skin changes can occur with thickening and discolouration of the skin and rarely ulceration.] theres you answer
