What connect arterioles to venules?
capillaries
How are arterioles capillaries and venules related?
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.
Do arterioles have valves?
No; arteries (and arterioles) depend on smooth muscle contraction, whereas veins (and venules) have valves.
How did you distinguish between arterioles and venules when you observed the vessels in the frog's foot?
Arterioles are smaller vessels that carry blood away from the heart, while venules are smaller vessels that carry blood back to the heart. By observing the direction of blood flow and the presence of valves (which venules have), one can distinguish between arterioles and venules in the frog's foot vasculature.
How do you distinguish between arterioles and venules?
Arterioles are small blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the capillaries, while venules are small blood vessels that collect deoxygenated blood from the capillaries and carry it back to the heart. Arterioles typically have thicker walls and are more muscular than venules to help regulate blood flow and pressure, while venules have thinner walls and lower pressure.
What are tiny connecting bridges between arterioles and venules?
Capillaries are the tiny connecting bridges between arterioles and venules. They are responsible for the exchange of gases, nutrients, and waste products between the bloodstream and surrounding tissues.
What are arterioles and what are capillaries?
Arteioles are blood vessels that connect arteries and capillaries. Capillaries are blood vessels that connect arterioles and venules
What kinds of blood vessels are in the body?
Arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules and veins.
How many kinds of blood are there?
Five- arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, veins.
What are the main responsibility of the capillaries?
To exchange oxygen and nutrients between arterioles and venules
What connects the arterioles and venules?
Capillaries are microscopic blood vessels that connect arterioles to venules. These blood vessels facilitate the movement between the blood and the tissues.
How many kinds of blood vessels are there?
Five- arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, veins.
