A

Tunica intima (interna)

61
Q

a three layered blood vessels that carries blood HIGH in oxygen away from the heart of a living person.

A

artery

62
Q

As arteries move away from the heart they lose which layer?

tunica adventitia layer

(tiny arteries) - a two layer blood vessel carrying blood away from the heart of a living person. Only contains tunica media and tunica intima

A

Arteriole

64
Q

As the artery continues to move away from the heart the next (2nd) layer lost is?

A

tunica media (muscle layer)

65

In Reverse - The tunica media (muscle layer) reappears

A

capillary

66
Q

(a tiny vein) -two layered blood vessel carrying blood toward the heart of a living person.

The Tunica adventitia (externa) then reappears

A

venule

67
Q

three layered blood vessel that carries blood toward the heart of a living person

A

veins

68
Q

Layers making up a vein are ________ than that of an artery.

A

thinner

69
Q

The capillary level is where life occurs. The walls are so thin blood has to line up to pass.

Veins are the suction side as blood moves toward the heart of a living person. Veins start small and as the venule or tunica media (muscle layer) reappears, it leaves a two layer vein carrying blood to the heart. As blood continues, the tunica intima (interna), third layer, or vein reappears carrying blood toward the heart of a living person. Layers of a vein are thinner and can be ruptured more easily. 85% of blood shifts to the venous side of the body following death. Veins are equipped with valves to prevent the back flow of blood going towards the heart of a living person from going to the lowest point to prevent the back flow.
