Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
The layers within arteries and veins are as follows: tunica adventitiathe outermost layer. This layer is composed of connective tissues and nerve cells, as well as nutrient capillaries in larger vessels. This layer protects the outside of the vessel. Tunica mediathe middle layer. This layer contains the thickest elastic fibers, as well as connective tissue composed of polysaccharides. This layer is covered by a thick elastic band and smooth muscle fibers, which control the caliber of the vessel. Tunica intimathe innermost layer. This layer is the thinnesta single layer of simple squamous endothelium, held together by an intercellular matrix. This layer is surrounded by connective tissue interlaced with elastic bands (internal elastic lamina).
