Blood vessel types, artwork
Blood vessel types. Artworks of the three types of blood vessels, from left: arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries are thick blood vessels carrying oxygenated blood around the body away from the heart-lung system. Veins are thinner blood vessels with valves (flaps) preventing backflow (arrows) of deoxygenated blood as it is returned from the body to the heart-lung system. Capillaries, the smallest blood vessels, are the width of a single red blood cell, and are where the oxygen in these cells is exchanged with the bodys tissues. Capillaries also have valves. Red blood cells are shown in the artery and the capillary

Discover the beauty of the human body with our Media Storehouse range of Photographic Prints featuring "Blood Vessel Types" by Science Photo Library. This captivating artwork showcases the intricate details of the three essential types of blood vessels: arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries, depicted on the left, are robust vessels carrying oxygenated blood from the heart to the body's extremities. Veins, located in the middle, return deoxygenated blood back to the heart for re-oxygenation. Lastly, capillaries, shown on the right, are the smallest blood vessels that facilitate the exchange of nutrients and waste between the blood and body tissues. Bring the wonders of biology into your home or office with this stunning piece of art.
Photo prints are produced on Kodak professional photo paper resulting in timeless and breath-taking prints which are also ideal for framing. The colors produced are rich and vivid, with accurate blacks and pristine whites, resulting in prints that are truly timeless and magnificent. Whether you're looking to display your prints in your home, office, or gallery, our range of photographic prints are sure to impress. Dimensions refers to the size of the paper in inches.
Our Photo Prints are in a large range of sizes and are printed on Archival Quality Paper for excellent colour reproduction and longevity. They are ideal for framing (our Framed Prints use these) at a reasonable cost.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate artwork depicting the three types of blood vessels: arteries, veins, and capillaries. Each vessel type plays a crucial role in our circulatory system, ensuring the proper functioning of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood flow throughout the body. Starting from left to right, we see arteries depicted as thick blood vessels responsible for carrying oxygenated blood away from the heart-lung system to nourish various organs and tissues. Veins are portrayed as thinner vessels with valves that prevent backflow of deoxygenated blood as it returns from the body to be reoxygenated. The arrows symbolize this unidirectional flow. The smallest among them are capillaries, represented here as delicate structures only slightly wider than a single red blood cell. These microscopic vessels facilitate vital gas exchange between red blood cells and surrounding tissues. They too possess valves to regulate their function effectively. The inclusion of vibrant red blood cells within both an artery and a capillary emphasizes their significance in maintaining a healthy circulatory system. This visually striking illustration not only educates us about these essential components but also highlights their anatomical features such as longitudinal cuts and valves. With its blend of artistry and biology, this image serves as a valuable tool for understanding the physiological intricacies of our vascular system while appreciating its aesthetic appeal.
