organ/tissue)
vein (blood vessels that take blood to the heart; veins drain blood from an organ/tissue)
capillary (blood vessels at which nutrients, gases, wastes, hormones, etc are exchanged)
tunica Interna (TOO-ni-ka in-TER-nah) (also called tunica intima in-TI-ma) (This is
the innermost layer of a blood vessel wall. It is made of endothelium-simple squamous
epithelium) and a subendothelial layer of areolar connective tissue.)
tunica media (TOO-ni-ka ME-de-a) (This is the middle layer of a blood vessel wall. It is
made of circularly arranged layers of smooth muscle cells.)
tunica externa (TOO-ni-ka eks-TER-na) (also called tunica adventitia) (This is the
outermost layer of a blood vessel wall. It is made of areolar connective tissue with elastic
and collagen fibers. This layer helps anchor the blood vessel to other structures.)
