How does capillary wall receive oxygen?
Capillary walls receive oxygen in the lungs by a process known as diffusion.
Which part of the respiratory system will have the least amount of cartilage and the thinnest walls?
bronchials
What structure has the thinnest wall?
Capillaries in the circulatory system have the thinnest walls in the body, allowing for the exchange of nutrients and waste products between blood and tissues.
Why does capillary have thin walls?
The capillary walls are the thinnest blood vessels to allow the exchange of materials.Capillary walls only have a single layer of endothelial cells (the flattened layer of cells that line the closed spaces in the body). This is unlike the arteries and veins which have multiple layers such as smooth muscle, elastin, and connective tissues. The thin walls allow for oxygen and waste products (such as carbon dioxide) to diffuse between the tissues and blood.
What is permeability an important characteristic of?
Capillary walls & Cell membranes
