torustikuvõrgustikust
Tõrustikuvõrgustik refers to the network of arteries, arterioles, and capillaries that supply blood to the body's tissues. This vital system is responsible for transporting oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and other essential substances to cells, while also removing waste products like carbon dioxide. The network begins with the aorta, the largest artery, which branches into smaller arteries, then even smaller arterioles. These arterioles finally lead into the capillaries, which are the smallest blood vessels. Capillary walls are extremely thin, allowing for the efficient exchange of substances between the blood and the surrounding tissues. Following their passage through the capillaries, blood collects in venules, which merge into larger veins, eventually returning to the heart. The continuous flow and intricate branching of this vascular network ensure that every part of the body receives the necessary support for its functions. Disruptions to the tõrustikuvõrgustik, such as blockages or weakened vessel walls, can have significant health consequences.
