Veins

Veins are elastic vessels that transport blood to the heart. Veins can be categorized into four main types: pulmonary, systemic, superficial, and deep veins.

Capillaries

Capillaries are extremely small vessels located within the tissues of the body that transport blood from the arteries to the veins. Fluid and gas exchange between capillaries and body tissues takes place at capillary beds.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Abnormalities that are thought to have both biological and psychological causes are diagnosed as psychological factors affecting one's medical condition.

The word abnormal is a combination of the English word normal with the Latin prefix ab, which meaning "away from." It basically implies "strange" or "not typical." When something is abnormal, it implies that it is also undesirable. However, the word "abnormal" can also have a good connotation. Any behavior that differs from what is seen as normal is termed abnormal.

Psychologists employ four main criteria to define abnormal conduct: social norm violation, statistical rarity, emotional suffering, and maladaptive behavior. Any behavior that is abnormal for a certain culture, statistically rare, harmful to the individual or people around them, or that is maladaptive.
