Expert Solution

Step 1 Introduction on arteries and Veins:

Arteries carry blood away from the heart. The pulmonary arteries transport deoxygenated blood that has a low oxygen content from the right ventricle to the lungs. Aortic arteries transport oxygenated blood from the left ventricle to the body tissues. Blood is then pumped from the ventricles into large elastic arteries that branch into smaller and smaller arteries until the branching results in arterioles whereas veins receive the blood from different body organs to the heart.
