there are three types of blood vessels in humans:
arteries
,
veins
and
capillaries
arteries
carry blood
away
from the
heart
, under
pressure
arterial walls have a
thick
lumen and contain
layers
of
muscle
capillaries
are very small, and their lumen is only
one cell thick
(to allow easy
diffusion
)
veins
take
blood
back to the
heart
veins carry blood under
lower
pressure, therefore they have a relatively
thin
lumen
