What is the blood protein plays a role in maintaining osmotic pressure and water balance between blood and tissues are?
Albumin
The amount of ADH that is secreted varies with?
The amount of ADH secreted varies with blood osmotic pressure and blood volume.
What are the consequences of low osmotic pressure in the human body?
Low osmotic pressure in the body can lead to muscle and nerve non-function as well as low blood pressure. It can lead to confusion, seizures and coma. Possibly death can be the result.
How do communication systems allow the body to maintain homeostasis?
When equilibrium within the body is maintained, homeostasis is said to. The system of blood vessels comprising the head, allow the excess.
Changes in blood osmotic pressure would most affect the secretion of?
ADH (Antidiuretic Hormone)
What do plasma proteins that remain in the blood capillaries help?
Maintain the osmotic pressure of the blood
What is the component of plasma that maintains the osmotic pressure of blood?
The component of plasma that maintains the osmotic pressure of blood is protein. The protein albumin and others maintain osmotic pressure in blood.
What are the results of when the blood pressure in the capillaries greatly exceeds the osmotic pressure of the blood?
we produce from the cappilarries
What factors affect the osmotic pressure in the blood capillaries?
Hmmm..
Does concentration of plasma sodium ions affect the blood osmotic pressure?
yes, the higher number of plasma sodium ions the greater the osmotic pressure.
Plasma proteins that remain in the blood capillaries help to?
Maintain the osmotic pressure of the blood.
Molecules within the blood are forced out through the walls of capillaries as a result of osmotic pressure?
false- osmotic pressure draws water in capillaries hydrostatic pressure forces water out
When you take a persons blood pressure it is a reflection of lymphatic pressure arterial pressure osmotic pressure or venous pressure?
arterial pressure
Which force favors blood filtration?
Capillary hydrostatic pressure and interstitial fluid osmotic pressure
What effect does albumin have on blood flow?
albumin increases colloid osmotic pressure
What aids the passage of water into the blood on the venous side of the capillary?
osmotic pressure
The formation of lymph increases as a result of?
increased osmotic pressure in blood capillaries.
