marrow
2. Artery
---large A: aorta, pulmonary trunk
---medium-sized A: all named A, the diameter > 1mm (radial A, ulnar A)
---small A: 300um<D<1mm
1) Medium-ype ---correspond with A except for LV ---three layers
---structural features: a. larger diameter, thinner walls- collapsed b. no internal and external elastic membrane,
• processes –microvilli-like, finger-liked
• vesicle
/60-70nm, constitute about 25-35% of total volume
/transendothelial channel
function: transport large molecules and storage of membrane (for enlarge, enlongated, pore-formed and microvilli)
so the boundaries between three tunica are not very clear c. contains more CT, less smooth M, SM are arranged in bundles d. vein valve:
/infolding of tunica intima /semilunar-liked /prevent back flow of blood
