The tiny blood vessels in the body are called capillaries. They are microscopic and connect arterioles (small arteries) to venules (small veins), facilitating the exchange of oxygen, nutrients, and waste products between blood and tissues. Capillaries have thin walls, allowing for efficient diffusion. Their extensive network ensures that all body cells receive essential substances and can dispose of waste effectively.
