What is Starling's Law of the capillaries?
The hypothesis that fluid filtration through capillary membranes is dependent on the balance between the pressure the blood places on the membranes and the osmotic pressure of the membranes. The law relating to the passage of fluid out of a capillary depending on the hydrostatic and osmotic pressures of the blood and the same pressures of tissue fluid, the net effect of the opposing pressures determining the direction and rate of flow.
What do Cohesion and Adhesion have to do with Capillary action?
The liquid rises up due to the forces of adhesion between the capillary and liquid.. It rises till the extent when adhesive and cohesive forces and external forces balance each other...
The relationship between the amounts on the adjusted trial balance for an account and its ledger?
The adjusted trial balance reflects the balance of each account on the ledger. If there is a $1000 debit to Cash and a $200 credit to Cash in the same accounting period, the balance on the ledger will be $800 Cash. This $800 Cash balance will be reflected on the adjusted trial balance. In sum, the adjusted trial balance reflects the net of an account each accounting period.
What is capillary action due to?
The adhesive intermolecular forces between the substance rising (the one experiencing capillary action) and the container (typically a capillary).

Tiny vessels through which diffusion take place between the blood and the body tissues?

What is meant by the term 'capillary exchange'?
Capillary Exchange is a biological term. This is where fluids, gasses, nutrients, and wastes are exchanged between the blood and body tissues by diffusion.
What is the difference between wicking and absorption?
Wicking is a kind of absorption, in which capillary pressure is the only cause. The absorption may happen by external pressure and/or capillary pressure.
What is the relationship between the cohesion and capillary action?
Cohesion is the attraction between molecules of the same substance. Capillary action is the tendency of water to rise in a thin tube. As one molecule of water is pulled up the plant's capillary, it pulls the other molecules up because of cohesion.
