exchange of fluid that occurs across the capillary membrane between the blood and the interstitial fluid. This fluid movement is controlled by the capillary blood pressure, the interstitial fluid pressure and the colloid osmotic pressure of the plasma. Low blood pressure results in fluid moving from the interstitial space into the circulation helping to restore blood volume and blood pressure.

Will an increase in capillary pressure shift fluid into the capillaries?
An increase in capillary pressure will shift fluid into or out of the capillaries
What is capillary reabsorption?
fluid entering the capillary
Which forces act to move fluid back into the capillary reabsorption?
Osmotic pressure is what draws fluid back into the capillary from the tissues.
What is the most important transport mechanism in a capillary bed?
the cocoon.
When the osmotic pressure in a capillary exceeds the blood pressure in the capillary what is the net movement of fluid?
water and waste will move in capillary . water and waste will move in capillary .
The primary mechanism for exchange of substances across the capillary wall is?
Diffusion
From what does capillary cell wall receives blood?
The capillary cell wall receives blood from the interstitial fluid.
Mechanism that your body has that maintain fluid body?
what mechanism that you body has that maintain fluid balance?
What is fluid shift?
Fluid shift is the transfer of fluid from blood to interstitial fluid (IF). This transfer changes blood and IF volumes.
What is the mechanism that allows oxygen to move from the alveolar into the pulmonary capillary blood?
Simple diffusion
Which forces affect the exchange of substances between blood and tissue fluid?
At the proximal end of capillary, you get the fluid out in the tissue fluid due to blood pressure. At the distal end of the capillary, you get back the tissue fluid due to oncotic pressure of the blood proteins.
Is peritubular fluid is same with interstitial fluid?
Yes, btw peritubular capillary and tubule/duct
