Permitting the exchange of nutrients and gases between the blood and tissue cells is the primary function of capillaries. Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels , they are only one cell thick, and they act as sites of the transfer of oxygen and other nutrients from the bloodstream to the body tissues. Additionally, they also collect carbon dioxide, waste materials and fluids for return to the veins.
bacteria can live in hotter and colder temperatures than humans but they do best in a warm moist protein-rich environment that is pH neutral or slightly acidic
