Vedclass · Answer

(A) The wall of a blood vessel (artery or vein) consists of three distinct layers:$1$. The innermost layer is the $Tunica \ intima$,which is composed of a lining of squamous endothelium.$2$. The middle layer is the $Tunica \ media$,which consists of smooth muscle and elastic fibers.$3$. The outermost layer is the $Tunica \ externa$,which is composed of fibrous connective tissue with collagen fibers.Therefore,the correct order from inside to outside is $Tunica \ intima \rightarrow Tunica \ media \rightarrow Tunica \ externa$.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$P$. Tunica intima	$I$. Smooth muscle
$Q$. Tunica media	$II$. Squamous epithelium
$R$. Tunica externa	$III$. Fibrous connective tissue
