A is for Artery

I am starting a new puzzle series in Idaho Falls. Ill go from A to Z with each letter representing something to do with the body. This series will take longer for me to place the caches than my others due to them being puzzles. I will try to vary the puzzles in difficulty and style. Happy Caching
Artery Facts

• Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart.
• There are three main classifications of arteries: large or elastic, medium or muscular and small or arterioles.
• The blood in arteries is bright red in color because it contains oxygen.
• Arteries have to be strong to withstand pressure from the beating heart. To withstand the pressure, the arteries contain elastic tissue and muscle that allow them to expand and constrict.
• The largest arteries are closest to the heart and are about the diameter of your thumb.
• The aorta, which connects to the left ventricle of the heart, is the largest artery in the body.
• The smallest arteries, called arterioles, are less than 0.5 mm in diameter, meaning they are so tiny that they are barely visible to the human eye.
• You can feel some arteries by touching your skin. Feeling the arteries is how you check your pulse. The arteries you can feel by touching your skin are the abdominal aorta, brachial, common carotid, dorsalis pedis, femoral, posterior tibial and the radial artery.

You can validate your blood,sweat, and tears of a puzzle solution with certitude.
