What else can I help you with?
How do liquids travel through plants?
By a process called "capillary" action.
The process by which neutrophils are squeezed through the capillary walls during the inflammatory process is called?
diapedesis
Blood leaves the capillary thorugh a tube called a?
Blood leaves a capillary through a venule, a small vein. At that point, the blood is making its journey back towards the heart.
The upward movement of water through tiny spaces in soil or rock is called?
Permeability
What general type of blood vessel that transports blood from one capillary to another capillary?
From the heart the blood moves through the Artirioles, through the systemic capillaries, through the precapillary sphincters to the Venules, and back to the heart. Otherwise they are generally just called capillaries
What is it called when a white blood cell squeezes through a blood vessel to attack infections?
The movement of the WBC through a capillary is called diapedesis. In very general terms it is also called extravasation
When leukocytes squeezes through capillary walls to enter tissue space outside the blood vessel it is called?
Diapedesis
Does water travel up?
Yes, water can travel upwards through a process called capillary action, where water moves against the force of gravity through small spaces in a material. This phenomenon is seen in plants, where water moves from the roots to the leaves through capillary action.
Nutrient molecules pass from the small intestine into the bloodstream through tiny structures called what?
Nutrient molecules pass from the small intestine into the through tiny structures called villi.
What are blood vessles called?
The tiny blood vessel is called as capillary. The diameter of the capillary is about 8 micrometer. They are present through out your body. They are present in your body in very large number. Together the cross sectional area of them all is about 2500 square cm.
Cerebrospinal fluid is formed by capillary knots?
Cerebrospinal fluid is primarily produced by specialized structures in the brain called choroid plexus, rather than capillary knots. These choroid plexus structures filter blood plasma to create cerebrospinal fluid, which serves to protect the brain and spinal cord.
How are glucose and oxygen passed from the blood through the capillary walls to the cells?
Glucose and oxygen are transported from the blood to cells through capillary walls by a process called diffusion. The concentration gradient between the blood and the cells allows these molecules to passively move across the capillary walls. Once inside the cells, glucose and oxygen are used for energy production through cellular respiration.
