One example of diffusion in the human body?

The lack of nutrients inside a cell compared to the blood vessel creates a concentration gradient between the blood vessel and the cell. Due to the lower concentration in the cell, the nutrients diffuse through the blood vessel wall and into the cell.


What blood cell can pass through blood vessel wall?

White blood cells, or leukocytes, can pass through blood vessel walls in a process called diapedesis. This allows them to exit the bloodstream and move into tissues to fight infections or respond to inflammation. Unlike red blood cells, which primarily remain within the circulatory system, white blood cells are crucial for the immune response and can migrate to areas of need.

What is the Process by which white blood cells actually pass through the vessel wall into surrounding tissue?

White blood cells pass through the vessel wall into surrounding tissue through a process called diapedesis. During diapedesis, the white blood cell first attaches to the endothelial cells lining the blood vessel. It then squeezes through these cells to reach the surrounding tissue where it can carry out its immune functions.

Does epithleal tissues have blood vessels?

Epithelial cells are the lining cells. they are not a tissue. this is to be understood first. the outermost lining is known as the epithelial cell lining. it is provided its nutrition through diffusion- indirectly through blood. BUT they DO NOT have a blood vessel supply, since they are not an organ/tissue, just a cell lining.
