Arteries and vein are the two different types
of blood vessels present in human body which circulates the blood in human
body. Arteries carry the oxygenated blood into the body while veins carry the
deoxygenated blood.
Following are the difference between arteries
and veins:
Arteries
|
Veins
|
Arteries carry the oxygenated blood
|
Vein
Carry the deoxygenated blood
|
Artery circulates the oxygenated blood in whole body
|
Vein bring the
deoxygenated blood to heart from the different area of the body.
|
Arteries are red in colour
|
Veins
are bluish in colour
|
Arteries are usually situated deeper within the
body.
|
Veins are positioned
closer beneath the surface
|
Artery have not any valve
|
Vein has valve
|
Artery has thick elastic muscular
walls.
|
Veins have thin nonelastic less muscular walls.
|
Internal Diameters of the artery is
narrow
|
Internal diameter of the veins are
wider than the artery
|
Contraction of muscle presence in arteries
|
Contraction
of muscle is not happen in vein
|
Artery have high blood pressure the veins
|
Veins have a lower blood pressure than the artery
|
Atherosclerosis, Angina pectoris, myocardial ischemia are the disease related to arteries
|
Deep vein
thrombosis, varicose vein is the
disease related to veins.
|
Muscle of arteries are contracted
|
Muscles of veins are not contracted
|
Pulses are detectable in Artery
|
Pulses are
not detectable in Veins.
|
Arteries walls are rigid
|
Veins walls are collapsible
|
Arteries empty up at the time of death.
|
Veins
get filled up at time of death.
