Veins have much thinner and softer walls than arteries.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Veins have much thinner and softer walls than arteries because they are responsible for carrying deoxygenated blood back to the heart. This blood is under lower pressure compared to the oxygenated blood being pumped out by the heart through the arteries. Therefore, veins do not require thick and strong walls like arteries to withstand high pressure. The thinner and softer walls of veins allow them to expand and contract easily, facilitating the return of blood to the heart.Rate this question:

The structure of the heart consists of several layers, including the pericardium, the epicardium, the myocardium, and the endocardium. The pericardium is the outermost layer of the heart, providing protection and support. The epicardium is the thin layer that covers the surface of the heart. The myocardium is the thick, muscular middle layer responsible for pumping blood. The endocardium is the innermost layer that lines the chambers of the heart and valves. These four layers work together to ensure the proper functioning of the heart.Rate this question:
