Very small blood vessels that are the site of the actual exchange of gases nutrients and wastes occur are called?
capillaries
Where does gas exchange occur in the lungs?
gaseous exchange in the lungs takes place in the walls of the alveoli which are provided with a rich supply of blood vessels .the partial pressures of the gases .i.e. CO2 and oxygen in the atmosphere and the blood vessel is naturally perfect for the diffusion of gases.
Where does the exchange of gasses occur?
The exchange of gases occurs at the ends of the airways in the lungs. Here tiny sacs called alveoli connect with tiny blood vessels and here exhaust gas [carbon dioxide] is exchanged for fresh gas [oxygen].

Where does the exchange of gases occur in the plant?
During the stage of photosynthesis, the exchange of gases occur in the leaves.
In which type of vessels does gas exchange between blood and tissues occur to the greatest extent-veins?
The capillaries
Exchange of nutrients and gases between the blood and tissue cells?
capillaries is where the exchange of materials occur such as; gases,nutrients, hormones, and so on.between the blood and the interstitial fluid.
What type of blood vessel lets gases and food move in and of the blood?
All blood vessels allow gases, such as oxygen and nitrogen, as well as liquids, enzymes, etc, to pass through them. Food particles, once absorbed by the small intestines, become part of this process.
Where does the exchange of oxygen waste and nutrients occur?
Lymph vessels
Is gas exchanged in the pleura?
--it is in the alveoli where the exchange of gases occur.. :))
In which blood vessels does diffusion occur?
Capillaries.
In what vessels does gas exchange occur?
Gas exchange occurs in the capillaries which are the smallest blood vessels in the body. Each artery that comes from the heart is surrounded by capillaries so that they can take it to the various parts of the body. This is why whenever we get a paper cut and we bleed this blood is from the capillaries which branch off in to smaller veins and arteries and then eventually into capillaries.
