blood vessel Dalam Bahasa Indonesia
Blood Vessel
Definisi:
A blood vessel is a tubular structure that carries blood throughout the body. There are three main types of blood vessels: arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries transport oxygenated blood away from the heart, veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart, and capillaries are small vessels that facilitate the exchange of oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, and waste between blood and the body’s tissues.
Penggunaan:
In a sentence: “The doctor explained that blockages in the blood vessels can lead to serious health issues, such as a heart attack or stroke.”
Etimologi:
The term “blood vessel” is derived from the Middle English word “blod” (from Old English “blōd”) meaning “blood” and the Latin word “vasculum,” which means “small vessel” (from “vas” meaning “vessel”). The combination reflects the function of these structures in the circulatory system.
