A.What are the differences between arteries and veins?
Arteries are thicker, they lead the blood to the heart, they are stronger
Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart
Arteries are larger with thick, muscular walls that pulsate and they carry oxygenated blood away from the heart. Veins are smaller with valves to prevent back flow of blood, and they carry deoxygenated blood to the heart.
