Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The capillary wall is a one-layer tissue so thin that gas and other items (eg oxygen, water, proteins and fats) can pass through them driven by pressure differences. Waste items such as carbon dioxide and urea can move back into the blood to be carried away for removal from the body.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are 3 types of capillary in the body; continuous, fenestrated, and sinusoidal.
Detailed explanation-3: -What is the function of fenestrated capillaries? These capillaries move blood, fluids and waste throughout your body. The windows, or openings, in fenestrated capillaries allow larger molecules to pass through them. Fenestrated capillaries are especially important in your kidneys.
