Blood flows through both
Well, for one thing, veins and arteries both carry blood through the body and they both lead from the heart too. The only difference is that the arteries, are fatter than veins. Also, i think that if you pop an artery or poke a hole in your artery, then your blood comes spewing out like a fountain! The arteries take blood from the heart, while the veins, bring blood too the heart.
