What is the function of a pulmonary arteriole?
a pulmonary artieriole is part of the respiratory system. inside the respiratory system is an organ called alveoli and the alveoli are covered in a network of capillary. the job of the pulmonary arteriole is to carry deoxygenated blood into the capillary network.
Why it is necessary for the lungs to have a dense capillary network?
Because it speeds up the gas exchange because it has a larger surface area.
How does capillary wall receive oxygen?
Capillary walls receive oxygen in the lungs by a process known as diffusion.
What is the function of the capillary loop?
what funtion does the capillary loop have in the hair follicle
Site of alveolar-capillary oxygen exchange?
Within the lungs.
What is the function of the capillary beds?
Exchange
Capillary network within the renal corpuscle?
Glomerulus
What is the function of the pulmonary capillary plexus?
The pulmonary capillary plexus is a network of tiny blood vessels located in the lungs, primarily surrounding the alveoli (air sacs) where gas exchange occurs. Its main function is to facilitate the transfer of oxygen from the inhaled air into the bloodstream while allowing carbon dioxide to be expelled from the blood into the alveoli for exhalation. This efficient exchange is crucial for maintaining proper oxygenation of the body and removing metabolic waste gases. The plexus also helps regulate blood flow and pressure within the pulmonary circulation.
In which capillary beds does oxygen enter the capillaries and carbon dioxide exit the capillaries?
The capillary bed in the lungs is where the oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged.
What is the capillary network within the renal corpuscle?
peritubular capillaries
What 3 types of vessels in lungs?
They are pulmonary artery, pulmonary vein, and capillary.
Which is a renal disease in which substances from the immune response to the streptococcus bacterium collect in the capillary network of the nephron?
renal disease in which substances from the immune response to the streptococcus bacterium collect in the capillary network of the nephron
