Veins have much thinner walls, because the blood they carry is under low pressure. VEINS have valves that aid the return of blood to the heart and prevent blood from going backwards. ARTERIES do not have valves, except for the semi-lunar valves of the pulmonary artery and the aorta. ARTERIES have relatively narrow lumens, VEINS have relatively wide lumens.
There are two types of blood vessels: arteries and veins. Arteries carry blood under high pressure out to all areas of the body after being pumped by the heart. Veins carry blood that should be under low pressure, on its way back to the heart. An artery does not usually connect directly to a vein.Usually there are very small blood vessels called capillaries that connect an artery to a vein.. Source(s): http://www.hht.org/web/what_is_hht/overv...ere the blood in the capillaries gives oxygen to the cells and picks up the waste gas, carbon dioxide, from the cells. The capillaries are connected to the smallest veins in the body. The veins get bigger and bigger as they carry the blood back towards the heart.
