Arteries-carry blood away from the heart. (I like to think Arteries Away.) Veins-carry blood to the heart. Capillaries-connect veins and arteries. Arteries are the tubes o â¦ r vessles which carry the blood away from the heart once the blood has been oxygenated by the lungs.tructural similarities between artries and veins are 1) The walls of arteries and veins both contain collagen which makes them strong and durable. 2) They both contain elasti â¦ c fibres which allow them to stretch and recoil.
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.
