<em>Capillaries are thin walled so that the nutrients ,lipids and water can easily diffuse out from blood into the tissues,,,
And the waste products and carbon dioxide can diffuse back into the blood and carried away for the removal from body...</em>

The smallest capillaries or capillary blood vessels in the body is the name given. Mu.m to about sizes 5-10. Combining with arterial venous capillaries, tissue interaction are the most densely blood vessels. From a single cell layer of capillary walls (endothelium) occurs. This layer is so thin that oxygen, water and molecules such as lipids enter tissues by diffusion from the substrate can pass. Pests such as carbon dioxide and urea, and waste materials in the blood capillaries are distributed by diffusion. With the release of certain cytokines capillaries permeability (permeability) can be increased further. 
<span>The average total length of capillaries in the human body is about 40,000 km. Connecting arteries with veins, thin veins are composed of a single row of epithelial tissue. Exchange of substances between blood and tissue cells and the blood flow is slow provide.</span>

liberstina [14]

The correct answer is option (D) Lipid molecules are nonpolar because they repel water molecules, which are polar.

Lipids are organic compounds made up of fatty acids and glycerol. A glycerol is a organic molecule with three hydroxyl groups and a fatty acid consists of a long hydrocarbon chain attached to a carboxyl group.

Lipids are hydrophobic, nonpolar molecules with no charge on their ends. Waxes are long chain nonpolar lipids. The water repelling property of the waxes prevent the water sticking to it and appear as water beads on its surface. The hydrophobic hydrocarbon tail of the fatty acids are hydrophobic in nature making them repel water. The presence of wax on the surface of the plants and animals protects them from dehydration.

Thus, the nonpolar property of lipids make it insoluble in the polar solvents like water as there is no interaction or sharing of electrons between them.

Which of the following is a plant structure that is involved in asexual production?
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

2. Tuber

Explanation:

Reproduction is the process by which living organisms multiply themselves. They do this through two major ways namely: asexually and sexually. Sexual reproduction involves two organisms (male and female) that each donate a gamete (sperm and egg). In plants, the sexual reproductive structure is the FLOWER. The male flower is called STAMEN, while the female flower is called PISTIL.

However, plants can also be propagated asexually by making use of certain plant parts including tubers, leaf etc. TUBER is a structure in plant specifically used to asexually reproduce plants like yam, potato, cassava etc.
