Solution

Healing of blood vessels:

  1. Blood vessels are the major components of the circulatory system.
  2. They help in the transport of blood, nutrients, and gases to and fro from the tissues.
  3. Angiogenesis is the wound healing process that helps in the repair of blood vessels.
  4. It takes up to two weeks to mend the broken blood vessels.
  5. A wound in the blood vessel is immediately blocked with a clot and then nutrients and fresh oxygen are rushed to the spot to promote healing.
