Detailed explanation-1: -Arteries are blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood to all parts of the body. They have thick muscular walls and have no valves in their inner linings. Veins carry deoxygenated blood and have thin muscular wall. They have valves in their inner lining to prevent the backward flow of blood.
Detailed explanation-2: -Arteries can maintain that high blood pressure due to their strong lining and flexible walls that allow for the additional push of blood. Because of this unique design and the assistance they receive from the heart, they do not need valves to prevent backflow.
