Detailed explanation-1: -The arteries are the thickest of all blood vessels and have muscular walls that contract to keep the blood moving away from the heart. The veins are not as muscular, but they contain valves to prevent the blood from flowing backward. The arteries are therefore widest blood vessels.

Detailed explanation-2: -Arteries are the largest blood vessels with the thickest walls, and capillaries are the smallest. Arteries are only located deep inside your muscles, but capillaries are inside tissues all over your body.

Detailed explanation-3: -Arteries have thick walls and are situated superficially in comparison to other blood vessels. Arteries are blood vessels, the network of pathways through which the oxygenated blood travels away from the heart to various cells, tissues, and organs of the human body.

Detailed explanation-4: -arteries-these carry blood pumped away from the heart; they are the largest and strongest blood vessels.

Detailed explanation-5: -Your arteries are thicker and stretchier to be able to handle the higher pressure of blood moving through them. Your veins are thinner and less stretchy.
