Vedclass · Answer

(A) Veins carry blood from the tissues back to the heart. Since the blood in the veins is moving away from the heart and has already passed through the capillary beds,it flows under low pressure. To ensure that blood flows in only one direction towards the heart and to prevent the backflow of blood due to gravity or other factors,veins contain valves. Therefore,valves are present in veins to check the backflow of blood flowing under low pressure.
