Why does diffusion happen in capillaries?
Capillaries must allow diffusion too allow for exchange of oxygen. Without oxygen, the eventual consequence would be death.
Does the exchange of substances happen next to the blood capillaries?
this is a false statement blood capillaries do not exchange in diffrent part of your body
What would happen if your capillaries were missing?
You'd be dead in seconds.
What happen to the capillaries around your eye when you get a bruise or a black eye?
you eye will be black and white .
What is going to happen if you have a heart failure?

What can happen to smaller capillaries and arteries if the blood pressure is too high?
Heart attack, or stroke.
What would happen to your blood pressure if blood were supplied to all of your capillaries at the same time?
you would die
What are capillaries for?
The capillaries are where the gas and nutrient exchanges occur. Because in a closed circulation system the blood can't go outside the vessels, it must go to the capillary beds where it is about 1 cell thick to have diffusion. Alveoli in lungs are covered by capillaries to allow gas exchange to happen. The capillaries are most abundant of all the blood vessels, because most part of your body requires oxygen, and capillaries are where it can be given to cells.
Capillaries that have a incomplete lining are called?
continuous capillaries continuous capillaries
What will happen to the blood capillaries in the skin when a person starts jogging?
they will probably expand some as the blood pressure rises
What would happen to net filtration pressure at the glomerulus if proteins began to leak from the glomerular capillaries into Bowmans capsule?
Are you in C34?
Is Diapedesis the process by which red blood cells move out of the capillaries into the tissue?
Yes, but this is not a normal process it happen in response to injury.
