Érhálózat

érhálózat is a Hungarian term that translates to "vascular network" or "network of vessels." It commonly refers to the system of blood vessels in the circulatory system of a living organism. This network is comprised of arteries, veins, and capillaries, all working together to transport blood, oxygen, nutrients, and hormones throughout the body. Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart, branching into smaller arterioles and eventually into tiny capillaries where gas and nutrient exchange occurs with tissues. Deoxygenated blood is then collected by venules, which merge into larger veins that return blood to the heart. The intricate and extensive nature of this vascular network is crucial for maintaining life and ensuring proper organ function. Beyond biological contexts, the term érhálózat can also be used metaphorically to describe any interconnected system of pathways or channels, such as a road network or a communication system.
