Question

Name the types of vessels going from arteries to veins, with every step in between, this time giving the relative blood pressure, blood volume, and flow speed of each.

1. Name: Arteries

Relative bp: High

    Relative blood volume: High

    Relative flow speed: High

2. Name: Arterioles

    Relative bp: Medium

    Relative blood volume: Medium

    Relative flow speed: Medium

3. Name: Capillaries

    Relative bp: Low

    Relative blood volume: Low

    Relative flow speed: Low

4. Name: Venoules

    Relative bp: Low

    Relative blood volume: High

    Relative flow speed: Low

5. Name: Veins

    Relative bp: Low

    Relative blood volume: High

    Relative flow speed: Low

Please let me know if I am correct?

Explanation / Answer

Yes. It is correct except the volume of blood in venules is low.

As the ventricles of heart pump the blood exerts

High pressure, volume and flow speed high in arteries; some what reduced when it gets branches as arterioles and low reaching the capillaries.

Whereas the blood pressure, volume and flow speed is low in venules; when its together forms venules the of blood is high and pressure and speed remains low.
