Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -They are larger and hold more blood than the arteries. The blood passing through the veins is deoxygenated (except in pulmonary veins ) and flows at a low pressure. It flows slow and steady against the direction of gravity. Therefore, veins have valves to prevent the backflow of blood.
