Material moves from inside capillaries to body cells primarily through a process called diffusion. Oxygen and nutrients, which are in higher concentration in the blood, diffuse across the capillary walls into the surrounding tissues where their concentration is lower. Additionally, small openings in the capillary walls allow for the passage of larger molecules and fluids through filtration and osmosis. This exchange of materials is crucial for cellular function and overall homeostasis.

Capillaries are very thin blood vessels. Oxygen and nutrients and hormones can pass through the walls of the capillaries and reach the body's cells, while red blood cells remain in the capillaries.

No, capillaries are tissues that form tubes to transport blood throughout the body. They are made of thousands of cells.

veins, capillaries, arteries or white cells and red cells
Capillaries - they are the smallest vessels that serve as arteries and veins.
Capillaries take oxygen and nutrients from the blood to the cells in the body. They also remove waste products, such as carbon dioxide, from the cells.
Arterioles are the small arteries that lead into the capillaries, which connect to cells in the body. Venules are the small veins that the capillaries flow back into, leaving the cells.
