Which of the following correctly compares the factors involved in bulk flow of fluid in systemic and pulmonary capillaries? The brush border of proximal tubule epithelial cells is composed of microvilli found on the basolateral membrane increases the surface area for movement of substances between the tubular fluid and cytosol is composed of microvilli found on the apical membrane increases the surface area for movement of substances between the cytosol and interstitial fluid

Which of the following statements are true regarding the arterial system and capillaries? The cross-sectional area of the capillaries is greater than that of any other blood vessels. Exchange of materials occurs in the capillary beds between the blood and interstitial fluids. The blood and the interstitial fluid are not the same. The elastic recoil of the arterial walls contributes towards the maintenance of blood pressure. The high rate of diffusion in the capillaries is aided by the high flow of fluid. The pressure is greatest in the capillary beds to aid in forcing fluid exchange with the interstitial spaces. Vasodilation and vasoconstriction are controlled by the smooth muscles in the walls of the capillaries.
