Question: Differentiate between blood capillaries and lymphatic capillaries?
Blood capillaries are responsible for exchanging oxygen and nutrients with tissues, while lymphatic capillaries are responsible for collecting and transporting excess fluids, waste products, and immune cells from the tissues. Blood capillaries are lined with endothelial cells and are part of the circulatory system, while lymphatic capillaries are lined with overlapping endothelial cells and are part of the lymphatic system. Blood capillaries have a higher pressure and thicker walls, while lymphatic capillaries have a lower pressure and thinner walls with one-way valves to prevent backflow.
