    Each 'granule' contains a loop of capillaries and therefore bleeds easily if traumatised. Granulation tissue is made up mainly of proliferating fibroblasts, capillaries and tissue macrophages in a matrix of collagen, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) including HA, and the glycoproteins fibronectin and tenascin [13], [14]. Granulation tissue formation is evident…

    retinopathy, the capillaries of the retina become more permeable. This can cause fluid exudation (hard exudates) into the retina, these appear as small well defined yellowish white patches. Micro aneurysms can develop, which can rupture causing small bleeds. Arterial occlusions due to poor oxygenation of the nerve fibres by the retinal capillaries (Morrison) cause retinal infarcts ‘cotton wool spots’ on the retina. Thickening of the basement membranes of the retinal capillaries can also occur.…

    that contains a glomerulus, bowman's capsule, capillaries, veins, arteries, the Loop of henle, and a collection duct. As we go along this speech you will figure out what some of the parts are. The nephrons have to filter the blood, but where do they get it from? The constant supply of blood comes from the arteriole, a venue, and a network of capillaries connecting them. Blood that enters the nephron goes into the glomerulus which is a network of capillaries that are inside a cupped shaped…

    this paper chromatography experiment, the mixture to be separated was spotted 1.5 centimeters from the bottom of chromatography paper, which was then dipped in the solvent, a 0.1 percent salt solution. The solvent then moved up the filter paper via capillary action and carried the mixture's pigments with it (Rosen and Gothard, 2010). Each pigment has a unique retention factor or Rf, a ratio between how far a pigment travels to the distance…
