First Sentence

Because not every cell in the human body is near enough to the environment to easily exchange with it mass (including nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and the waste products of metabolism), energy (including heat), and momentum, the physiologic system is endowed with a major highway network - organized to make available thousands of miles of access tubing for the transport to and from a different neighborhood (on the order of 10 um or less) of any given cell whatever it needs to sustain life.
