Veins have valves that prevent the backward flow of the blood. These valves are bicuspid, meaning they have two flaps like structures. These flaps are made up of elastic tissues.
Do capillaries have valves?
Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels in the body. The structure of capillaries consists of just a single layer of endothelial cells. Hence, capillaries do not have valves.
In which capillaries do valves present?
Unlike arteries, veins contain valves that ensure blood flows in only one direction. (Arteries don't require valves because pressure from the heart is so strong that blood is only able to flow in one direction.)
