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.
Capillaries are the smallest of all blood vessels and form the connection between veins and arteries. As arteries branch and divide into arterioles and continue to reduce in size as they reach the muscle they become capillaries. Here the capillaries form a capillary bed, which is a vast expanse of very small vessels forming a network throughout the muscle. However, unlike veins and arteries, their main function is not transporting blood.
