J artery (blood vessels that take blood away from the heart; arteries take blood to an organ/tissue) vein (blood vessels that take blood to the heart; veins drain blood from an organ/tissue) capillary (blood vessels at which nutrients, gases, wastes, hormones, etc are exchanged) tunica interna (TOO-ni-ka in-TER-nah) (also called tunica intima in-Tl-ma) (This is the innermost layer of a blood vessel wall. It is made of endothelium-simple squamous epithelium) and a subendothelial layer of areolar connective tissue.) tunica media (TOO-ni-ka MĒ-dē-a) (This is the middle layer of a blood vessel wall. It is made of circularly arranged layers of smooth muscle cells.) tunica externa (TOO-ni-ka eks-TER-na) (also called tunica adventitia) (This is the outermost layer of a blood vessel wall. It is made of areolar connective tissue with elastic and collagen fibers. This layer helps anchor the blood vessel to other structures.)
