They have typical three layer blood vessel wall structure with a thick tunica media. The walls of arteries are highly compliant due to the elastic fibres present. The wall thickness of the arteries varies in based on the proximity to the heart. The elasticity of arteries allows pressure absorption from the left ventricle of the heart as it pumps blood into the arteries. There are two significant types of arteries‚ elastic and muscular. Elastic arteries are the largest in the body and include the aorta

influences how goods are sold. Supply and demand: According to this theory‚ the supply of an item and its demand affect its price. An item that is in high demand will have a high price. An item that has a low demand will have a low price. Market structure is another economic pricing theory. This theory looks at how many outlets in a given area offer the same (or similar) products. Elasticity of demand measures how much someone will pay for a product before being forced to seek another alternative. There

Gasoline is often thought of as being a single chemical‚ but it’s actually a complex mixture of hydrocarbons that generally have 4 to 12 carbon atoms in their molecules. In the case of gasoline

Elasticity of Labour Demand A firm always incurs a change in labour or capital. It is important for a firm to know the effects on the wage or capital increase since it would help the firm make accurate decisions. A change in wage would make an impact on the firms employment.
