Because the blood is pumped directly into arteries so there is more pressure on the arteries. Because the blood is pumped directly into arteries so there is more pressure on the arteries.
Because the pressure in the artery is much higher than the pressure in the vein so the artery has to hold the pressure
Blood in the arteries is under extremely high pressure as its taking oxygenated blood from our heart.Veins take low pressure unoxygenated blood back to our heart.
Because they are much higher priority than other veins. They bring blood from the heart and distribute it to the smaller veins.
Extra protection.
The blood in arteries is under pressure, is being pumped by the heart.

Is Artery more thicker than vein?
the wall of an artery is usuallythicker that the wall of a vein.
What is the cross section of arteries and vein?
A cross section of a vein shows a thinner wall than that of the artery, and shows one-way valves. A cross section of an artery shows a thicker, more muscular wall and no valves.
Is the walls of a artery thicker than a vein?
Veins have thin walls because blood that flows through them is usually low in pressure while the blood that flows through the arteries are usually of high pressure. The walls are thick to prevent bursting.
Which bleeds more artery or vein?
Yes, because there is more pressure in the artery than in the vein so the artery has to be big enough to hold the pressure that's inside it.
Is the aorta an artery or a vein?
it is a VEIN <3
Is Artery more thicker than vein?
the wall of an artery is usuallythicker that the wall of a vein.
Is the wall of an artery thicker than that of a vein?
Yes. For equivalently sized arteries and veins, arterial walls are significantly thicker.
Does vena cava or aorta have thicker walls?
The aorta has thicker walls as it is an artery not vein.
Why are artery walls thicker than vein?
Because the blood flowing through them is at a much higher pressure, therefore they need to be thicker to withstand more pressure.
In comparing a parallel artery and vein you would find what?
In comparing a parallel artery and vein, you would find that the vein had thinner walls and a darker color. The artery would have thicker, more muscular walls and a brighter red color.
What is the cross section of arteries and vein?
A cross section of a vein shows a thinner wall than that of the artery, and shows one-way valves. A cross section of an artery shows a thicker, more muscular wall and no valves.
Is the artery bigger than a vein?
No the veins are bigger than the artery
Why pulmonary is an artery rather than vein?
in our body there are both, pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein
What are the differences of the wall of the artery and a vein?
The muscularis layer of arteries has a thicker layer of smooth muscle.
Is the walls of a artery thicker than a vein?
Veins have thin walls because blood that flows through them is usually low in pressure while the blood that flows through the arteries are usually of high pressure. The walls are thick to prevent bursting.
Why the artery has a thick layer muscle then vein?
Because there is more pressure on the artery wall (from the heart) than that of the vein.
Which bleeds more artery or vein?
Yes, because there is more pressure in the artery than in the vein so the artery has to be big enough to hold the pressure that's inside it.
