Chapter 15, Problem 37RQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The amount of fluid which filters from the capillaries of the heart in every beat if average heart rate of Person B is 75 beats per minute and net capillary filtration rate is 3.24 L/day.
Introduction: The amount of fluid which moves out of the capillaries in a specific time is known as capillary filtration rate. It occurs due to hydrostatic pressure that forces the fluid to move out of the capillaries. These fluid moves out through gap junctions with leakages. The periodic contraction and relaxation of chambers of the heart is known as a heart beat.

Select the best answer or answers from the choices given: Suppose that at a given point along a capillary, the following forces exist: capillary hydrostatic pressure (HPc) = 30 mm Hg, interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure (HPif) = 0 mm Hg, capillary colloid osmotic pressure (OPc) = 25 mm Hg, and interstitialfluid colloid osmotic pressure (OPif) = 2 mm Hg. The net filtration pressure at this point in the capillary is (a) 3 mm Hg, (b) −3 mm Hg, (c) −7 mm Hg, (d) 7 mm Hg.
The average amount of blood pumped each minute by a healthy heart is about:
70 mL
10 liters
490 ml
5 liters
