The arteries
definition

the blood vessels

which convey the
blood from the
heart to all parts of
the body
composition

pulmonary arteries

systemic arteries
The characteristics of the distribution of
the arteries
a. the larger arteries usually occupy hidden locations in the
limbs, running along the flexor surfaces to avoid injury.

b.They are segmental and intersegmental in character. The

intersegmental character of the intercostals and lumbar
vessels is obvious.

c.The intersegmental arteries and vein are bilaterally

symmetrical vessels

d.The arteries in the trunk of body can be divided into the

parietal and visceral branches. The parietal branches are
distributed to the walls of the body, and the visceral to
the internal organs.

e.Many of arteries, veins and nerves are enclosed together

in a sheath of fascia.
