What is the Process by which white blood cells actually pass through the vessel wall into surrounding tissue?

White blood cells pass through the vessel wall into surrounding tissue through a process called diapedesis. During diapedesis, the white blood cell first attaches to the endothelial cells lining the blood vessel. It then squeezes through these cells to reach the surrounding tissue where it can carry out its immune functions.


Epidermal cells are supplied with nutrients from what blood cells?

Cells in the blood do not provide nutrients to the other cells of the body. The nutrients are in the blood plasma (liquid). These nutrient diffuse through the vessel wall and travel to the bodies cells in the interstitial fluid (the fluid around individual cells). The epidermis does not have blood vessel running through it, so the nutrient must pass from the dermis layer of cells.


Lumen is the size of red blood cells?

Lumen refers to the inner space within a tubular structure such as a blood vessel or intestine, through which substances pass. It is not a measure of size like red blood cells but rather the open space within the structure. Red blood cells are typically around 6-8 micrometers in diameter, much larger than the lumen of small blood vessels.
