8.6 Exchange of materials between blood and body cells
Why are all body cells
bathed in tissue fluid?
183
8.6 Exchange of materials between blood and body cells
Importance of tissue fluid
1 Provides a constant environment for
the body cells
2 Serves as an important link for the
exchange of materials between
capillaries and body cells
184
8.6 Exchange of materials between blood and body cells
1a At the capillaries, useful materials
are forced out of the blood into
the tissue fluid and then diffuse
into the body cells.
185
8.6 Exchange of materials between blood and body cells
1b Waste products from the body
cells diffuse into the tissue fluid
and then diffuse through the
capillary wall into the blood .
186
8.6 Exchange of materials between blood and body cells
2 Blood pressure in the capillaries
is higher than the pressure of fluid
surrounding the body cells.

Some plasma except plasma
protein

White blood cells can squeeze
through the capillary wall and enter
the tissue fluid.

8.7 Lymphatic system
1 Lymphatic system consists of:
lymph
capillary
collects excess
tissue fluid as lymph
lymph
vessels
formed by joining
lymph capillaries
lymph
nodes
found at intervals
along lymph vessels
203
8.7 Lymphatic system
2 Lymph is driven forwards inside
lymph vessels by contraction of
muscles
muscles surrounding the vessels.
Valves are also present in the
lymph vessels to prevent backflow
of lymph.
204
8.7 Lymphatic system
3 Functions of lymphatic system:
• transports tissue fluid
back to the blood
205
8.7 Lymphatic system
3 Functions of lymphatic system:
• filters out germs from lymph
at lymph nodes
206
8.7 Lymphatic system
3 Functions of lymphatic system:
• transports lipids from

What are the functions of blood in
our body?
Blood is the transport medium in our
body. It is also important in protecting
us against diseases.
208
2
What is haemoglobin? What is its
role in the body?
Haemoglobin in red blood cells acts as
oxygen carriers.
209
3
Can artificial blood totally replace
donated blood? Why?
Artificial blood consisting mainly of
haemoglobin can carry oxygen to the
organs. However, it cannot serve for
other functions of blood, such as defence
against diseases and blood clotting.
