Suspend a ring of artery from a hook on a clamp stand. Use a metre rule to record the length of the ring once the mass carrier has been attached to the free end of the ring. Attach a 10 g mass (see Figure 1) and record the length of the ring after the mass is added. Remove the mass and record the length of the ring.

- Elastic recoil in arteries and veins
This activity has two parts. In part A students stretch blood vessels (a piece of artery and a piece of vein) and measure how elastic they are. In part B they look at the histology of the blood vessels using a microscope.
26 Δεκ 2019 · These arteries progressively lose their low-stretch bearing component, shifting load to stiffer matrix components (collagen). At the same time, arteries also lose some of their longitudinal elasticity and geometry, leading to elongation and increased tortuosity.
Elastic recoil in arteries and veins. Take rings of artery and vein tissue. Load and unload with 10 g masses and hence assess differences in elasticity. Consider how the elastic properties suit the different functions of artery and vein in the circulatory system.
21-1 Blood Vessels. The Tunica Intima (Inner Layer) Includes: The endothelial lining. Connective tissue layer. Internal elastic membrane. In arteries, is a layer of elastic fibers in outer margin of tunica intima.
Learning Objectives. By the end of this section, you will be able to: Compare and contrast the three tunics that make up the walls of most blood vessels. Distinguish between elastic arteries, muscular arteries, and arterioles on the basis of structure, location, and function.
Elastic arteries include the largest arteries in the body, those closest to the heart, and give rise to the smaller muscular arteries. The pulmonary arteries, the aorta, and its branches together comprise the body’s system of elastic arteries.
