Answer by Country Hick
I could answer all these questions for you, but it wouldn't do you any good. Looking them up for yourself will teach you more about them than if I gave you the answers. If your skilled enough to use Yahoo's question and answer program, you are skilled enough to look them up on the internet, which is an excellent teaching tool. I would like to make a correction to your questions though; phlebo does have to do with the veins, but arterio deals with the arteries. Veins carry deoxygenated blood from your body back to the heart while arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to all parts of your body. An exception to this is the PULMONARY ARTERY which carries deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs and the PULMONARY VEIN which carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart. Now go do the rest of your homework yourself.
