Arteries

If an artery is cut, blood will flow out rapidly in a pulsating manner. These high pressure vessels can result in large blood loss iff cut.

There are several things that are found in the walls of the stomach uterus and arteries. The smooth muscle is one of elements that are found in these organs.

The left ventricle pumps blood at a higher pressure because it sends blood all over the body where as the right ventricle pumps to the lungs,

The aorta is part of the circulatory system. It is the largest artery in the body and leads from the heart down through the abdomen and splits into smaller blood vessels that feed the lower half of the body (such as the femoral arteries).

The carotid artery supplies oxygenated blood to the head and neck. The radial artery delivers blood to the hands. It is important for the carotid and radial arteries to be synchronized because they work together to help the body function.

Cardiovascular system (consisting of the heart, blood and blood vessels).

head and upper extremities

if your taking blood pressure in the anticubital area (crease of the elbow) then you would palpate the brachial artery.

It supplies the cardiac muscle with oxygen and other nutrients, but only the left side of the heart

Well, from what I've read, the arteries are "elastic" meaning it's thick and at the same time, hard to tear or cut. Like it can be squeezed and it won't pop? I don't know though, since I'm not a doctor, I'd ask a doctor. Do you have a cut artery?? They said those things are emergencies so please do not wait when it comes to your health! Good luck! All the best.

They are called arteries, while veins carry the blood back. the vessels that carry blood to/from your heart are arteries. the vessels that carry the blood around your body are veins and capillaries.

The coronary artery is the one which brings blood to the heart.

When this is blocked, the heart is unable to pump due to lack of oxygen, and after a couple minutes the area of the heart that is receiving no blood dies.

This is known as a myocardial infarction, or more commonly, a heart attack.

The artery in the circulatory system contains the oxygen enriched blood cells coming from the lungs and heart out to the rest of the body. The vain is the mental egotistical outlook of oneself. The vein is the circulatory system containing the carbon dioxide waste of the body's cell returning to the lungs and heart for the exchange to oxygen before going back to the artery.

In the follicular phase, the biochemical and physiological events (secretions of LH, FSH and estrogen) support the growth of the follicle (the cell complex that surrounds and nurtures the egg) in the ovary and build up the lining of the uterus to receive a fertilized egg. At mid-cycle, when the egg is ready, a chemical signal -- a surge of LH and FSH -- tells the ovary to release the egg. This stage is called ovulation, and is the optimum time for fertilization to take place. The follicular phase basically is a cluster of cells that surrounds an egg and prepares it for release into the human female reproductive tract.

This is because arteries have more force going through them than veins do. Arteries have a higher level of pressure as opposed to veins who are more relaxed and just have blood being pushed along through them rather than FORCED.

If you put a vein in place of an artery, it would probably just burst.

Transposition of the great arteries is a birth defect causing a fatal condition in which there is a reversal, or switch, in the truncal connections of the two main (great) blood vessels to the heart, the aorta and pulmonary artery.

After blood leaves the arteries, it enters smaller blood vessels called arterioles which help supply the body with blood and then they break down into even smaller vessels called capillaries which then carry the oxygenated blood to the tissues, organs and all cells of the body. Then after the body uses up all the oxygen, the blood becomes deoxygenated which then enters venules and then veins which lead up back to the vena cava of the heart. It then enters the right atrium then passes through the tricuspid valve and then enters the right ventricle, then leaves the heart via the pulmonary artery which enters the lungs to oxygenate the blood.

The aorta is the main artery that takes blood from the heart to the body. The aorta drains the left atrium.

atheritis is like diabetes you take tabets or injections every week you could have it any where in your body i have it in my knees and you can get it in your hands ive had it for 12 years and i take injectiond every Saturday

Blood donations or blood taken for tests at a laboratory are taken from a vein.
