Yes, for the most part this is correct, but there are always a few exceptions to any rule (such as the hepatic portal system which has a vein carrying blood to the liver). Check out the link I provided for some more information. Good luck.

Or: Arteries are thick-walled tubes that carry blood from the heart to tissues, and veins are thin-walled tubes that carry blood from the tissues back to the heart.

You can say that.
The best way to remember which does what is that arteries is like 'heart away', and veins are the other one!

Better to say:
Arteries are muscular blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart. They are contrasted with veins, which carry blood toward the heart.

I don't know. Can you speak? Are you a mute? You MAY. It isn't a false statement. But I still don't know if you CAN.
