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.
In the circulatory system, veins (from the Latin vena) are blood vessels that carry blood toward the heart. Most veins carry deoxygenated blood from the tissues back to the heart; exceptions are the pulmonary and umbilical veins, both of which carry oxygenated blood to the heart.In contrast to veins, arteries carry blood away from the heart. Veins are less muscular than arteries and are often closer to the skin.There are valves in most veins to prevent backflow.n contrast to veins, arteries carry blood away from the heart.
