Fluid movement across these entities is calculated by the Starling equation. In the kidney, the glomerulus (glo-MAIR-you-lus) is formed of these entities, whose activity was first observed by Marcello Malphigi (mal-FEE-gee). "Fenestrated" types of these structures allow small amounts of protein and small molecules to diffuse through them. Many of these structures are only one cell thick. Oxygen is delivered to cells by diffusing across the walls of these vessels. For 10 points, name these smallest blood vessels in the human body.
