What kind of vessel gives blood to a capillary?
Either a arteriole on the artery side or a venule on the vein side of the bed.
Which one of the following sets of structures correctly lists the sequence of blood flow in the human body?
atrium, ventricle, artery, arteriole, capillary, venule, vein
What structure shunts blood from the arteriole to the venule?
The structure of an arteriole is:Arterioles are tiny branches of arteries that lead to capillaries.These are also under the control of the sympathetic nervous system, and constrict and dialate, to regulate blood flow.
What does Venule look like?
A venule is a very small blood vessel. It drains a capillary bed and meets up with other venules which drain blood into larger vessels called veins.
Describe the exchange of substances across the capillary cell membrane?
Capillary exchange... You have a higher blood pressure and a lower osmotic pressure at the arteriole end of the capillary, this causes water to leave the capillary. The gases oxygen and carbon dioxide and nutrients like glucose and amino acids follow their concentration gradients and diffuse across the capillary membrane. At the venule end of a capillary your blood pressure is less than that of osmotic pressure and water returns to the capillary.Hope this helped. I'm Looking for diagrams of this same thing. Any ideas?Here is a website I found that might help out too.http://www.mhhe.com/biosci/esp/2002_general/Esp/folder_structure/tr/m3/s10/trm3s10_2.htm
What structure within a capillary bed shunts blood from arteriole to venule?
Artery -> Arteriole -> Capillary -> Venule -> Vein
The flow of blood from an arteriole to a venule is called what?
Microcirculation
What is the difference between arteriole and venule blood flow?
An arteriole transports oxygenated blood from the arteries to the capillary beds and a venule transports de-oxygenated blood from the capillary beds to the veins.
What is responsible for gaining ECF from blood at the arteriole end and venule end?
Hydrostatic pressure is the force the gains the ECF from blood at the ends of the arteriole and venule. This process depends heavily on gravity for it to work properly.
What is a tiny vein?
A tiny vein is known as a venule. A tiny artery is an arteriole.
The glomerular capillaries differ from other capillary networks in the body because they?
It is unique from other capillary beds in that it is supplied with and drained by arterioles, the afferent arteriole and efferent arteriole, respectively.
Why water and dissolved substances leave the arterioles end of the capillary and enter the venule end?
Water and dissolved substances leave the arteriole end of the capillary due to hydrostatic pressure being higher than osmotic pressure and enter the venule of the capillary due to osmotic pressure being higher than hydrostatic pressure.
What kind of vessel gives blood to a capillary?
Either a arteriole on the artery side or a venule on the vein side of the bed.
What is the Medical term meaning tubes that carry the blood?
It's called blood vessel. it can be of following type viz Artery, Vein, Arteriole, Venule, Capillary.
Which one of the following sets of structures correctly lists the sequence of blood flow in the human body?
atrium, ventricle, artery, arteriole, capillary, venule, vein
What do the caplaries do?
Capillaries are blood vessels in the body that help transfer nutrients and waste between blood and tissue. They connect two other blood vessels, the arteriole and the venule.
Water and solutes flow form the arteriole end of the capillaries into the tissues due to what?
Hydrostatic pressure(inside capillary) is higher than osmotic pressure it re-enters the capillary on venule end because inside the hydrostatic pressure is now lessthan osmotic pressure drawing water back in
