You panic. You feel hurt and stupid at the same time. About 2 days later you feel a lot better and actually free from the burden of carrying around all that weight. You think, 'at least I know now how they feel'. Then you pick yourself up, dust yourself off and move on. Love is sweet.
The cardiovascular system contains your arteries. This system is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body and contains the heart, veins, capillaries, and other parts â¦that pump blood to the rest of the body. Blood passes through arteries, therefore making the arteries part of the cardiovascular system.
NOTE The function of veins is to return blood to the heart. Veins have thinner walls and have one way valves in them. 1  those that take blood from the heart to the lungs to be re-oxygenated; known as the pulmonary arteries. 2  These are the only arteries that transport de-oxygenated blood.
