The blood circulation carries blood from the , through to the tissues , and back through to the heart .
Blood pressure with distance from the heart .

All blood vessels have a central lumen lined by the .

Compared to veins , arteries have thicker muscular walls .
The outer layer of artery walls is made of connective tissue with elastic fibres . The middle layer of artery walls contains and elastic fibres .

The contractions of the heart create surges of blood under . The elastic fibres in the artery walls allow them to and as these surges of blood pass .

Contraction of the muscle in the layer of the artery wall reduces the of the lumen of the artery ; this is called .

Vasoconstriction reduces the flow of blood into capillary beds .
Relaxation of the smooth muscle of the middle layer of the wall causes the opposite effect ; this is called . Vasodilation the diameter of the lumen .

Capillaries allow with the tissues .
The wall of the capillary is very , consisting of a layer of and a surrounding layer of connective tissue .

In most capillaries , the escaping fluid consists of water with a variety of dissolved substances including , , hormones , acids and mineral ions . This escaping fluid becomes . Tissue fluid is similar to blood plasma but does not contain plasma .

Tissue fluid returning to the capillaries carries with it and wastes for excretion . Lymph is returned to the veins near the heart .
