Hello guys,
A capillary is made up of a single layer of endothelial cells right. So when blood cells pass through it, do the endothelial cells take blood cells up by endocytosis and then release it to other side.
How do capillaries take up nutrients, do the endothelial cells take it up intracellularly and then pass it or do they fit into the gap of endothelial cells?
Thanks![Smile :smile: :smile:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
