Capillary and red blood cell. Transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of a section through a capillary from a skin tissue,showing a single red blood cell (red) almost filling the lumen (inner space) of the capillary. Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels in the body,only a few micrometres across,just large enough for the passage of red blood cells. The capillary lining consists of endothelial cells.
