Detailed explanation-1: -Oxygen diffuses through the capillary wall, into the tissue fluid and the cells. Carbon dioxide diffuses from the cells into the tissue fluid, then across the capillary walls into the blood plasma . Glucose diffuses from the blood plasma, across the capillary walls to the tissue fluid, and then to the cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Pressure is a measure of the force that the blood exerts against the vessel walls as it moves the blood through the vessels. Like all fluids, blood flows from a high pressure area to a region with lower pressure. Blood flows in the same direction as the decreasing pressure gradient: arteries to capillaries to veins.
