Mapping the Blood Vessels Each group is to map out an assigned group of arteries or veins in relation to position within the body. Use your text book pages for arteries and pages for veins. Denote where blood is coming from and where it empties. Show which vessels supply blood to which tissues and organs. Each group is responsible for their section of vessels. Once complete, please have a TA check to make sure it is right, and then draw your section of blood vessels on the board. MAKE SURE TO COPY ALL GROUPS OF ARTERIES AND VEINS, AS YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL OF THEM.
