Expert Solution
Step 1

The term capillaries can be associated with one of the forms of blood vessels present in human body. This form of
blood vessel acts as a connecting link between arterial blood vessel and vein. Capillaries can be referred to as the
tiniest blood vessels and are responsible for transporting oxygen rich blood to the body cells. Their movement can
be observed either towards or away from cardiac portion.
