Description
Transmission electron micrograph of a highly magnified and cropped image of a capillary in a mouse cardiac muscle. The capillary is used mainly for the transport of nutrients and oxygen through the elaborate network of branches. Made up of endothelial cells the capillary has the ability to constrict or dilate when signaled by the body. Red blood cells average about 7.7 um in diameter and seen here as a darkly colored region in which its’ sole function is to deliver oxygen throughout the tissues of the body.
