a) As the veins are responsible for returning deoxygenated blood to the heart‚ they are most often working against gravity. The blood is prevented from reversing direction through large venous valves. However‚ if the pressure applied downwards on these valves is great enough and applied for a significant period of time‚ such in the case of prolonged periods of standing‚ the edges of the veins can become distended and eventually prevent the edges of the valves from successfully sealing. Varicosities

A varicose vein is a superficial vein with a faulty valve. The calf muscles squeezes the deep veins in the leg and pressure is reduced in the superficial veins. These superficial veins are fitted with special one-way valves to prevent the blood running backwards. The weight of blood in the vein is conciderable especially while standing still and the blood flow is against gravity. and blood is allowed to pool stretching the walls of the veins which damage the valves resulting in the lumen being unable
