Exchange of gases and nutrients occurs by diffusion between the?
capillaries and tissue cells
What is the gas exchange that occurs between blood and tissue cells at systemic capillaries called?
internal respiration
The two way exchange of substances between blood and body cells occurs only through?
capillaries
The gas exchange that occurs between blood and tissue cells at systemic capillaries is called?

What are the small vessels where blood exchanges various materials with cells?
The human circulatory system consists of arteries, veins, and capillaries. The capillaries are the thin-walled vessels that connect arteries and veins and allow for the exchange of materials between blood and tissue fluid.
The vessels that permit exchange of materials between the cells and the blood are termed?
Capillary: A tiny blood vessel where substances are exchanged between the blood and the body cells.
Why do capillaries have spaces between endothelial cells?
So that white and red blood cells can pass through the capillaries
Where is the site where Gases are exchanged?
Alveoli are site of gas exchange. Actual diffusion of gases occurs at interstitial space between capillaries and alveolar cells.
How are oxygen and nutrients passed to cells?
Capillaries allow Glucose and oxygen to move out of the blood in the capillaries into interstitial fluid and into the cells. Fluid is exchanged between capillary blood and interstitial fluid.
What diffuses out of the capillaries into areas between cells?
Lymph.
