The leakiest capillaries, which allow large substances such as cells to cross the capillary walls are called sinusoidal capillaries.

Sinusoidal capillaries are a unique kind of capillaries that are wide in diameter. The diameter of a sinusoidal capillary is 30 to 40 nm.

Sinusoidal capillaries can be found in the liver, spleen, and bone marrow. In the spleen, sinusoidal capillaries help in the filtration of blood. They remove broken red blood cells, antigens and other pathogens remains in the blood.

Sinusoidal capillaries are known as leakiest capillaries because all other capillaries have a narrow diameter and do not allow the passing of large substances. Sinusoidal capillaries are the only ones with a large diameter that allows the passing of larger substances.

Birds and mammals have a four-chambered heart, but most reptiles have a three-chambered heart. How does this fact affect the con
eduard

Answer:

The animals present body structure is due to evolution. It is seen in each part including the structure of the heart. The vertebrate heart becomes complex from a simpler form.  

Invertebrates, the heart of fishes is two-chambered having one auricle and one ventricle. The deoxygenated blood gets purified in the gills. They are aquatic and no lungs for breathing. The hearts pump a mixture of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood to the body.  

The amphibians and reptiles have 3 chambered heart as they lead terrestrial mode of life. The gills modified into the lungs.  The left auricle receives pure blood and the right auricle receives deoxygenated blood. The blood purified in the lungs and in the ventricle, both types of blood get a mix. The ventricle pumps the mixed-blood throughout the body.

In the case of birds and mammal, the heart is 4 chambered and the oxygenated and deoxygenated blood are separated. These two are higher vertebrates. No mix of pure and impure blood, the body receives only the oxygenated blood.

This shows to construct the phylogenetic tree of vertebrates - the fishes should be in the bottom, and above it amphibians, reptiles, then, mammals and birds on the top branch of the tree. As the chambers and structure of the hearts modified one after another.
