[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

the veins have a larger diameter and more compliance than arteries. This allows for the walls of the veins to stretch and expand, which results in a lower pressure within the veins compared to arteries. Additionally, veins contain one-way valves that help prevent backflow of blood, further decreasing the pressure. As a result, blood pressure decreases as blood travels from arteries to veins through the capillaries.
