Question

multiple choice question
intestinal villi, ciliary processes of the eye, glomeruli of the kidney, and choroid plexuses of the brain are common locations of ______ capillaries.
discontinuous
continuous
fenestrated

Explanation:

Fenestrated capillaries have pores (fenestrae) that allow for rapid exchange of substances. They are found in areas where a high - rate of filtration, absorption, or secretion is required such as intestinal villi for nutrient absorption, ciliary processes of the eye for fluid production, glomeruli of the kidney for filtration, and choroid plexuses of the brain for cerebrospinal fluid formation.

Answer:

C. fenestrated
