(elastic) artery; narrow lumen, thicker tunica media mainly composed of elastin and collagen, relatively few smooth muscle fibers
Name this type of blood vessel and describe and explain two visible adaptations
(muscular) artery; narrow lumen, thinner tunica media with more smooth muscle than elastic fibers
Describe the role of the pulmonary vein (include the type of blood contained)
carries oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart for circulation to the rest of the body
Describe the role of the pulmonary artery (include the type of blood contained)
carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs to pick up oxygen and remove carbon dioxide

white blood cell/ leukocyte; defends the body from pathogens
Name the component of blood seen here and state it's function
platelet; clotting of the blood
Name the component of blood seen here and state it's function
plasma; carries nutrients, carbon dioxide and waste products and heat
Name the component of blood seen here and state it's function
