FUNCTIONAL HISTOLOGY OF BLOOD VESSELS - - - - - - - MICROCIRCULATION: a network of small blood vessels, the smallest of which are the capillaries - - - - - - Regulation - - - Types of Capillaries - - - Special Capillary Arrangements In general, blood from an arteriole flows into a capillary network and is drained by a venule. There are two specialized capillary systems that depart from this standard arrangement: (1) glomerulus and (2) portal system. - - Lymphatic Circulation - - - - - Lymph and Lymphatics - - - - - - - - - - Lymph Nodes - - - Lymphadenopathy - - - - - - Lymphoid Organs - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
