This increased pressure favors filtration, which is the movement of fluid out of the capillaries. It also opposes absorption, which is the movement of fluid into the capillaries. Show more…

Movement between plasma and interstitial fluid occurs across capillaries. This occurs when water and small molecules move from plasma to interstitial fluid. Which of these could occur when a person has high blood pressure? Mark all that apply. Group of answer choices: - Oncotic force in capillaries is increased. - Hydrostatic pressure in capillaries is increased. This favors increased filtration. Which is true of blood in veins. Mark all that apply. Group of answer choices: - Contains one-way valves. - Moves toward the heart. - Moves from the contraction of skeletal muscle. Which of these is true of the lymphatic system? Mark all that apply. Group of answer choices: - Can be blocked by removal of lymph nodes. - If blocked, edema can occur. - Returns excess interstitial fluid to blood flow. - Contains one-way valves. If a patient has decreased plasma proteins, which of these could occur? Group of answer choices: - Hydrostatic pressure in capillaries is decreased. This favors increased absorption. - Oncotic force in capillaries is decreased. This favors increased filtration. Low blood pressure triggers sensory receptors called "baroreceptors" to change the frequency of "action potentials" sent to pressure regulation centers in the "medulla oblongata" in the brain. These centers then send out signals to blood vessels to cause "vasoconstriction", to the SA node to cause increased "heart rate", and to contractile cells in the ventricles to cause increased "contractility". The hormone "epinephrine", when released from the adrenal "medulla", can also cause the same effect by binding to adrenergic receptors in these effector organs.

41. The largest factor that promotes filtration of fluids from blood capillaries into the interstitial fluid: a. Blood colloid osmotic pressure [BCOP] b. Interstitial fluid osmotic pressure [IFOP] c. Blood hydrostatic pressure [BHP] d. Interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure [IFHP] e. all these contribute equally. 42. This factor is affected mainly by the concentration of plasma proteins in blood. a. BHP b. IFHP c. IFOP d. BCOP e. all pressures are equally affected by this. 43. A patient is suffering from edema. After some discussion, you learn the patient has been volunteering in Africa and seems to have excessive swelling in their ankles and lower leg. You suspect the patient has a parasitic worm infection blocking lymphatic vessels and ducts in the lower part of the body. These blocked vessels are causing a/an ____ in ____ leading to an imbalance in capillary exchange. a. decrease // IFHP b. increase // IFOP c. decrease // BCOP d. increase // BCOP e. increase // IFHP.
