Summary Introduction
To review:
Match the term muscular arteries with the most closely related descriptions given below:
deliver blood to the head
transport blood to the body’s internal organs and skeletal muscles
arteries whose smooth muscles do not contract
stationary blood clot
network of capillaries
arteries that supply a capillary network
supply blood to the upper limbs
small air sacs
supply blood to the lower limbs
collect blood from the kidneys
Introduction:
The body consists of three major types of arteries in the body. These arteries are muscular arteries, small arterioles, and elastic arteries. Muscular arteries are of variable sizes, some are large and some are too small. They provide blood to the internal organs and skeletal muscles.
