Which of the following statements is false concerning the movement of fluid between capillaries and interstitial space? Group of answer choices The osmotic pressure of the interstitial fluid does not oppose the movement of fluid from the capillary. Blood hydrostatic pressure forces fluid from the capillary to the interstitial space. The blood hydrostatic pressure and the blood osmotic pressure are always equal in magnitude but opposite in direction. Blood osmotic pressure moves fluid from the interstitial space to the capillary. The osmotic pressure of the interstitial fluid is less than the blood osmotic pressure.

Which of the following would promote the filtration of fluid out of a capillary and into the interstitial fluid? Group of answer choices An increase in hydrostatic pressure in the interstitial fluid An increase in both hydrostatic pressure in the interstitial fluid and colloid osmotic pressure if the blood plasma An increase in colloid osmotic pressure if the blood plasma An increase in hydrostatic pressure in the capillary
What is the main reason that fluid is forced out of the capillaries as they enter? The hydrostatic pressure of the blood is less than that of the interstitial fluid. The osmotic pressure of the blood is greater than the hydrostatic pressure of the interstitial fluid. The osmotic pressure of the interstitial fluid is greater than the hydrostatic pressure of the blood. The hydrostatic pressure of the blood is greater than the osmotic pressure of the blood. The osmotic pressure of the interstitial fluid is greater than that of the blood.
Which of the following is NOT true of gas, nutrient, and fluid exchange between capillaries and body tissues? Blood pressure is higher entering than leaving the capillary Osmotic pressure is constant across the capillary Blood pressure is less in the capillary than in the tissuesExcess fluid from the exchange enters the lymphatic duct Blood enters the capillary from the arteriole
Which of the following would increase the resistance in a blood vessel? Group of answer choices All of these would increase resistance. An increase in length of a blood vessel Severe dehydration and loss of water from the plasma Vasoconstriction of blood vessels
Which of the following statements best describes systolic blood pressure? Systolic blood pressure depends upon the force of the heart contractions - the stronger the contractions the higher the systolic pressure will be. Systolic blood pressure depends on how tightly the cuff of the sphygmomanometer is tightened. Systolic blood pressure depends upon the resistance of the blood vessels - the greater the resistance to blood flow the higher the systolic pressure will be. Systolic blood pressure depends upon the force and frequency of the heart contractions - the stronger and more frequent the contractions the higher the systolic pressure will be.
