Detailed explanation-1: -The arteries (red) carry oxygen and nutrients away from your heart, to your body’s tissues. The veins (blue) take oxygen-poor blood back to the heart. Arteries begin with the aorta, the large artery leaving the heart. They carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to all of the body’s tissues.
Detailed explanation-2: -Oxygen-rich blood then flows through the mitral valve (MV) into the left ventricle (LV), or the left lower chamber. The left ventricle (LV) pumps the oxygen-rich blood through the aortic valve (AoV) into the aorta (Ao), the main artery that takes oxygen-rich blood out to the rest of the body.
Detailed explanation-3: -The pulmonary veins carry oxygen rich blood and the pulmonary arteries carry oxygen poor blood. The oxygen rich blood is carried from the lungs to the heart and then to different cells in the body by the pulmonary veins.
Detailed explanation-4: -Final answer: The correct statement that describes arteries is they have thick elastic walls without valves inside, blood flows under high pressure and carries blood away from the heart to different parts of the body.
Detailed explanation-5: -The aorta carries oxygen-rich blood to the body from the left ventricle.
