Explanation:

Capillaries are thinnest blood vessels there are in human body or basically in any multicellular living creature. Capillaries are so thin, they are like a sheet made of cells. So there is nothing like capillaries which can introduce blood with the materials to be absorbed without letting both of them mix directly. Arteries and veins are too thick to carry out such exchange.

raketka [301]

During respiration, members of the animal kingdom use oxygen and then release carbon dioxide as a waste gas.

Members of the animal kingdom have a respiratory system that is composed of muscles, and airways that functions together to transport air into lungs, and the oxygen is used by cells. Carbon dioxide is also transported away from the cells as a waste gas. Respiration relies on other systems, such as the circulatory system, to transport oxygen and carbon dioxide to and from cells.
