Chapter 5, Problem 15A
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Capillary is very small and narrow tubules whose wall are made up of only endothelium. Endothelium in capillaries consists a single layer of epithelial cells with a basement membrane. This helps in the easy movement of fluid through them. Capillaries form a capillary bed which is a network of capillaries between an artery and a vein and is present in every region of the body. Capillaries help in the exchange of blood and interstitial fluids. The two types of processes that moves the fluid across the capillary wall are: the blood pressure and the osmotic pressure.
