Why is it possible for diffusion to take place at the capillaries and not in the arteries and veins?
liquid can leak in and out of capillaries, and arteries and veins have such thick walls, and their jobs are just to bring blood to and from the heart. NO need for diffusion in these.
How does the exchange of nutrients and oxygen with waste and cardon dioxide take place in the capillaries?
Its all diffusion.
Does the diffusion of respiratory gases take place at the membranes between the alveolar ducts and lymphatic capillaries?
no
Are capillaries one cell thick?
They are one cell thick to allow diffusion of gases to take place
Tiny vessels through which diffusion take place between the blood and the body tissues?
capillarycapillaries
Carbon dioxide enters the blood at the?
Capillaries. The diffusion of nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide and wastes take place in the capillaries. If you want to be more specific, it would be the venous ends of the capillaries where carbon dioxide enters the blood.
How does the exchange of the oxygen with waste and carbon dioxide takes place in the capillaries?
Exchange takes place by diffusion .
What are tiny vessels which diffusion takes place between the blood and the body tissues?
The capillaries. Check Wiki for "Capillary action".
Why does diffusion happen in capillaries?
Capillaries must allow diffusion too allow for exchange of oxygen. Without oxygen, the eventual consequence would be death.
What are the tiny vessels through which diffusion takes place between the blood and the body tissues?
The capillaries. Check Wiki for "Capillary action".
Tiny vassels through which diffusion takes place between the blood and the body tissues?

Tiny vessels through which diffusion takes place between the blood and the body tisues?
