What are small blood vessels called?
The answer you are looking for is most likely a "capillary". "Capillaries are the smallest of a body's blood vessels...which connect aterioles and venules, and enable the interchange of water, oxygen, and carbon dioxide, and many other nutrient and waste chemical substances between blood and surrounding tissues."
Vessels that connect arteries to veins and where the tissues exchange gases and nutrients with the blood are called?
Capillaries
What are the small vessels called where substances such as nutrientoxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged for substances in the tissue fluid surrounding body cells?
Capillaries
The movement of substances from the blood into the renal tubules is called?
SecretionSecretion is the process by which substances move into the distal and collecting tubules from blood in the capillaries around these tubules.
Chemical communication is carried out between neurons by substances called?
neurtransmitters
What are small bits of tissues that are carried in cup-like structures on liverworts called?
The small bits of tissue that are carried in cup-like structures on liverworts, are called villi.

What is the ADME scheme?
In pharmacokinetics, it represents:- Absorption - substance enters blood circulation- Distribution - substance is carried through the fluids and tissues of the body- Metabolism - substance is chemically processed/transformed into one or more other substances (called metabolites)- Excretion - substance, and/or its metabolites is removed from the body (or accumulates in tissues)
Substances that are carried to other cells and act as messengers to warn them of danger are called?
interferons
What type of blood vessel carries wastes away from the body's tissues?
This occurs in the capillaries. These are the smallest of the blood vessels, and this is what makes them ideal for the exchange of substances. Because they are one-cell thick, they are permeable, which allows oxygen and glucose, along with proteins and ions, to transfer into the cells. Meanwhile, carbon dioxide and urea are among some of the waste products that transfer out of the cells and into the capillaries.
How do nutrients carried in the blood reach the cells?
Blood is carried from the heart to various parts of the body in tubes called blood vessels. Capillaries are tiny blood vessels in almost every tissue in the body. Capillaries as so small they only allow one blood cell at a time to go through them. They are the only blood vessels with walls thin enough to allow diffusion. Nutrients in the blood diffuse directly across the thin capillary walls and into the cells of the tissues.
