Veins are like arteries, however, are not as strong as arteries as they do not have to transport blood at high pressure. After the exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen takes place between the arteries and capillaries, the blood containing waste products is received by the veins. Pulmonary Vei...
As stated, cellular operations are supported by a fantastically dense vascular system composed of arteries delivering freshly oxygenated blood, veins removing deoxygenated blood, and capillaries transferring blood from the arterial system to the venous system. The vessels themselves are a vital part of ...
