👉 The Afferent Veins are a group of veins that carry blood from the capillaries to the venules, which then merge to form larger veins. They are named after their location near the arterial side of capillaries. Afferent veins have thinner walls and are more permeable than efferent veins, allowing for greater exchange of fluids and nutrients between the capillaries and the interstitial fluid. These veins play a crucial role in regulating blood pressure and maintaining fluid balance in the body.
