Solution

The wrong statements about blood circulation from the given options are:

  1. Pressure in veins is high - This is incorrect. The pressure in veins is actually low. Blood pressure decreases as the blood moves through arteries, arterioles, capillaries, and veins. The term "venous pressure" is often used to specifically refer to the pressure in the venous system, which is usually much lower than arterial pressure.

  2. Arteries also have valves - This is also incorrect. Generally, arteries do not have valves. Valves are more common in veins to prevent the backward flow of blood.

So, the correct answer is 1 and 3.
