Detailed explanation-1: -Fluid movement into and out of capillaries is mainly dependent on two forces: hydrostatic pressure and osmotic pressure. Hydrostatic pressure is determined by fluid volume and the pressure of the fluid against the capillary walls.
Detailed explanation-2: -Starling forces are the physical forces that determine the movement of fluid between capillaries and tissue fluid. The two major starling forces are hydrostatic pressure and oncotic pressure. Hydrostatic pressure is the force exerted by blood inside the capillary or in the interstitial space.
Detailed explanation-3: -Pressure differentials govern fluid movement across physiologic semi-permeable membranes, and two of these forces are hydrostatic/hydraulic pressure and osmotic pressure.
