It's important to note that a diamond's carat weight does not equal size. Because of differences in depth and cut, two diamonds with identical diameters may in fact be two completely different sizes. Therefore, it is possible to buy a diamond that looks bigger than another that may actually have a smaller carat weight. When buying a diamond, consider the length, width and depth of a stone as well as the surface of the diamond (the part that will actually show when the diamond is set).
The tunica adventitia is the outermost layer of the arteries and veins. The word 'adventitia' in tunica adventitia comes from the Latin 'adventicius,' which means 'coming from outside.' This strong outer layer is composed of connective tissue that allows the blood vessel to withstand forces acting on the vessel wall.ll arteries and veins contain three layers. The innermost layer is called the tunica intima. The muscular middle layer is called the tunica media, and the outermost layer is called the tunica adventitia.
The blood vessels are part of the circulatory system and function to transport blood throughout the body. The most important types, arteries and veins, carry blood away from or towards the heart, respectively. All blood vessels have the same basic structure. The inner lining is the endothelium and is surrounded by subendothelial connective tissue. Around this there is a layer of vascular smooth muscle, which is highly developed in arteries. Finally, there is a further layer of connective tissue known as the adventitia, which contains nerves that supply the muscular layer, as well as nutrient capillaries in the larger blood vessels.
