AI overview

Capillaries are the tiniest blood vessels in your body, measuring just 5 to 10 micrometers across, and they form the final connection between arteries and veins. They matter because their extremely thin walls allow oxygen, nutrients, and other substances to pass between your blood and the surrounding tissues, making them essential for keeping your cells alive.
