What is the structure of microcirculation?
Microcirulation consists of terminal arterioles connected to capillaries. The capillaries are connected to post-capillary venules which are connected to the veins,
Which part of the body connect the arteries to veins?
The arteries are connected to the veins through capillaries. Blood leaves the heart through arteries, goes throughout the body, then by way of capillaries to the veins and returns to the heart.
Why are capillaries not shown on the diagram?
Capillaries are not shown on the diagram because the are too tiny. They are the smallest blood vessel and are connected to the veins.
How does blood get from the arterie to the vein?
Arteries are connected to veins through capillary beds in the body tissues.
What are facts about capillarys?
Capillaries are thin tubes connected to your veins and arteries that transfer the blood from the arteries to the veins. Capillaries are so thin, they are thinner than one piece of hair. They are one cell thick.
Which veins open up into the capillaries?
plmonary veins begin as capillaries and end as capillaries
Name three blood vessels?

What structures connect the smallest arteries with the smallest veins?
Capillaries are the structures that connect arteries to veins.
What are the names of the 3 blood vessles?
Arteries, capillaries, & veins.
What is difference between capillaries and veins?
Capillaries are smaller, thinner and have less surface area than veins. Veins take blood to the heart, and capillaries are the thin tubes that connect the veins and arteries together.
