What is the process called by which a cell passes through a capillary wall?

Please select an option Incorrect. Pinocytosis or 'cellular drinking' is a process of endocytosis in which liquids suspended in small vesicles are transported into cells. This process is not related to cell movements as a whole. The process by which a cell uses an amoeboid movement to pass through a capillary wall is called diapedesis. Within the endothelium, there are a number of interendothelial spaces that white blood cells are able to pass through when travelling at low speeds. Increased diapedesis is part of the reason for swelling during inflammation, as a result of increased hydrostatic and osmotic pressures within the vessels.As a result of this, more leukocytes can gain access to the tissue in order to fight the pathogen.
