The terminal arteriole feeding the capillary bed leads into a metarteriole, which is continous with the thoroughfare channel. The thoroughfare channel, in turn, joins the postcapillary venue that drains the capillary bed.

What is the function of venules?
A venule is a small vein. A vein always carries blood to the heart and usually carries oxygen poor blood. Since the circulatory system is circular, all of the vessels connect at some point. That happens in capillary beds, which are where venules (small veins) and arterioles (small arteries) meet. Arteries carry blood away from the heart and are usually oxygen rich. Venules fuse to form veins that bring the blood back to the heart where it can get oxygenated and deliver it to body tissues where the whole cycle starts again.
Geta is a math function or string function?
GetA is a math function and not a string function.
If an inverse function undoes the work of the original function the original function's becomes the inverse function's domain?
The original function's RANGE becomes the inverse function's domain.
The inverse of a function is always a function?
a function is a added to the iverse function and multiply the SQURED AND CUBIC OR ethc......
Is an exponential function is the inverse of a logarithmic function?
No, an function only contains a certain amount of vertices; leaving a logarithmic function to NOT be the inverse of an exponential function.
What is a venule what is its length?
A venule is a smaller version of a vein.
What is the difference between a vein and venule?
A vein is larger than a venule. It is also closer to the heart and farther from the capillaries than a venule.
What functions do capillaries and postcapillary venules share?
Small postcapillary venules consist entirely of endothelium just like capillaries (the larger venules have smooth muscle and thin externa as well). Also both capillaries and venules have no elastic tissues. Postcapillary venules are extremely porous which makes them more like capillaries then veins, and fluid and WBC's move easily into the bloodstream through these walls.
What structure within a capillary bed shunts blood from arteriole to venule?
Artery -> Arteriole -> Capillary -> Venule -> Vein
Where does the thoroughfare channel end?
venule
The flow of blood from an arteriole to a venule is called what?
Microcirculation
What type of vessel does a capillary receive blood?
Capillaries send blood to both arteries and veins.
What does Venule look like?
A venule is a very small blood vessel. It drains a capillary bed and meets up with other venules which drain blood into larger vessels called veins.
What is the difference between arteriole and venule blood flow?
An arteriole transports oxygenated blood from the arteries to the capillary beds and a venule transports de-oxygenated blood from the capillary beds to the veins.
How does blood flow from capillary to venule?
By the process of diffusion.
Is a venule is a tiny tube which gathers blood returning from the capillaries?
true
What is a venule?
a smaller version of a vein.
