Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels with thin walls and a diameter of about 5-10 micrometers. While the heart pumps blood continuously, only a small percentage of the total blood volume is within capillaries at any given time. This is because the blood circulates through the arterial system, then the capillary bed, and then returns through the venous system to the heart. The majority of the blood volume is in the venous system, while the arterial system and capillaries contain a smaller percentage. Research suggests that approximately 5% of the total blood volume is within capillaries at any given time.
