MT 13 – GH 1 year, 5 months agoThe urinary system includes your kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra. This system filters your blood, removing waste and excess water. This waste becomes pee. The most common urinary issues are bladder infections and urinary tract infections (UTIs).

MT 13 – CD 1 year, 6 months agoDo veins have valves?
Veins, however, rely on surrounding muscles to move blood up to your heart and on tiny, one-way valves to keep it flowing in the desired direction. If the valves malfunction, blood will pool in the vein instead of traveling where it needs to be.

MT 13 – CD 1 year, 6 months agoThere are two types of veins:
* Pulmonary veins – major blood channels which transports oxygenated blood from the lungs to the other parts of the body’s.
* Systemic veins – transports deoxygenated blood back to the heart. -

* Veins have greater diameters that carries higher blood volume and have thinner walls concerning their lumen. -

MT 13 – CD 1 year, 6 months agoAre veins bigger than arteries?
No, Arteries are thicker than veins. The
walls of arteries are thicker and more stretchy to handle the higher pressure of blood moving through them. Veins, on the other hand, are
thinner and less stretchy.https://www.webmd.com/heart/difference-between-arteries-and-veins

ALTHEA DEQUITO posted an update in the group
MT 13 – CD 1 year, 6 months agoVeins are thinner than arteries because they have less smooth muscles and connective tissue despite having three layers. Their layers are thinner because the blood has lower pressure than the blood in arteries.

MT 13 – CD 1 year, 6 months agoWhy are veins thinner than arteries?
Veins have much lower pressure, so their walls are thinner. Veins also have one-way stop valves to prevent blood from flowing backward.https://www.webmd.com/heart/difference-between-arteries-and-veins

MT 13 – CD 1 year, 6 months agoDo veins have valves?
Yes. Veins, unlike arteries, have valves that ensure blood only travels in one way. Arteries don’t need valves since the heart’s pressure is so high that blood can only flow in one way. Valves also assist blood is returning to the heart against gravity.

MT 13 – CD 1 year, 6 months agoArteries and veins are similar in various ways:
* Both components of the body’s circulatory system.
* they are both blood vessels that transports blood throughout the body.
* Made up of different layers.
* Both are moving in one directional blood transportation. -

• Both are blood vessels in the circulatory system.
• Both have three layers: tunica adventitia (outer), tunica media (middle), and tunica intima (inner).
• Both carry blood.
• Both have muscular tissue responsible for expansion and contraction.
