Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
During pressure filtration, ____ pressure forces plasma out of capillaries into surrounding cells where it is known as ____
A
Low/tissue fluid
B
High/tissue fluid
C
Low/lymph
D
High/lymph
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hydrostatic Pressure CHP is the force that drives fluid out of capillaries and into the tissues. As fluid exits a capillary and moves into tissues, the hydrostatic pressure in the interstitial fluid correspondingly rises. This opposing hydrostatic pressure is called the interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure (IFHP).

Detailed explanation-2: -The effective osmotic pressure in this example exerted by the plasma proteins on the fluid movement between the two compartments represents colloid osmotic pressure or the plasma oncotic pressure.[2]

Detailed explanation-3: -Glomerular blood hydrostatic pressure (GBHP) promotes filtration-it pushes water and solutes in blood plasma through the glomerular filter. GBHP is the blood pressure in glomerular capillaries, which is about 55mm Hg.
