Q

Describe and state the location of the capillaries in the body.

A

Continuous- found in most regions of the body, its a form of continuous lining.
Fenestrated- Contains pores in the endothelial lining. found where much fluid transport happens.
Sinusoid- Endothelial lining with large gaps. Found in the bone marrow, spleen, and some endocrine glands.
