Arteries vs. Veins: The Difference
Above you can see the difference between an artery and vein. Arteries vs. Veins: The DifferenceThe structures in these two are very different. ArteriesHave strong, thick muscular wallsHave a pulse presentContain no valves because blood pressure pushes blood forwardFound deep below surfaceVeinsHave weak, thin non muscular wallsDo not have a pulse presentHave valves because of low pressure, valves keep blood flowing in right directionFound near the surface of skinWhy?Veins and arteries differ because arteries do not have valves because they are controlled by high blood pressure that connects to the arterial wall which pushes blood down and through the body, veins require valves because the blood is low pressure and the valves ensure that blood travels in the right direction.

It then goes into the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve. Then it goes through the pulmonary artery to the lungs to be oxygenated. Then it comes back into the left atrium through the pulmonary vein. It will then go to the left ventricle through the mitral valve and then through the aorta to the rest of the body. How varicose veins formVaricose veins form when the veins become large, raised, and swollen with twisted blood vessels. The swollen veins cause the valves to improperly function, causing blood clustering. That will lead to enlarged veins which will raise to the surface of one’s skin and be evidently visible. -17780115443000Why don’t we see the varicose arteries?Varicose arteriesWe do not see the varicose arteries because the arteries is when the blood is carried away, but a person with varicose veins, has higher blood density at their feet or other extremities, so the blood is not carried to the heart to be distributed back through the body. Overall, a varicose artery does not exist. Body system roles with this processMuscular system – The muscular system helps push the blood in and through the heart to the body, so it plays a role in processing blood through the body. Respiratory system- the respiratory system helps to oxygenate the blood which will travel to the left atrium and ventricle to the rest of the body, and will come back to the right atrium deoxygenated. ................
