What else can I help you with?
Which tissue has a fluid matrix with no protein fibers?
Blood is the tissue that has a fluid matrix with no protein fibers. It is composed of plasma, which is a liquid extracellular matrix that contains water, ions, proteins, and other substances.
What do the lungs contain?
Alveoli, pleura fluid, lung tissue, blood
Is tissue fluid a part of blood?
No, tissue fluid is not part of the blood.
What plasma protein that helps maintain blood volume by pulling tissue fluid into capillaries is?
Albumin
Starvation causes the plasma protein levels in the blood plasme to fall how would that affect the formation of tissue fluid in the tissue spaces?
Starvation causes the plasma protein levels to decrease, and when there is less plasma protein in the blood, you get lower Po (Osmotic Pressure). Lower osmotic pressure means less pull (of tissue fluid) so this causes generalized edema.so basically, less plasma proteins -> decreased Po -> less pull -> reduced venous clearance --> fluid build up in tissue
What causes the accumulation of tissue fluid in starving people?
The accumulation of tissue fluid in starving people is due to a decrease in protein synthesis, which leads to decreased levels of albumin in the blood. This lowered albumin level causes fluid to leak out of the blood vessels and into the tissues, resulting in edema.
What does tissue fluid contain?
Tissue fluid contains water, electrolytes, proteins, nutrients, and waste products from cells. It serves as a medium for transporting essential substances between the bloodstream and cells, and helps maintain tissue hydration and overall homeostasis in the body.
What is the difference between blood and tissue fluid?
i would think its because has a liquid part as well as a solid part to it. Blood is composed of red blood cells & white blood cells etc... Tissues on a simple scale are defined as a compilation of cells so....there you go, a fluid tissue.
What contains large amounts of fluid and lacks fibers?
Blood - connective tissue/fluid within blood vessels. No fibers.
What is the fluid connective tissue that flows in blood vessels?
blood
What is the name of the liquid that leaks out of capillaries and surrounds the cells?
Blood flows in capillaries, but there is blood leaks out from the capillaries, known as tissue fluid or interstitial fluid.
Why reabsorption of tissue fluid into the blood in the capillaries is reduced in people whose diet is very low in protein?
If you're not getting enough protein in your diet the body turns on itself and starts to consume it's own proteins. These are the structural proteins in cells and tissues and the soluble proteins (including blood proteins, enzymes, antibodies and the like). This leads to loss of tissue and a reduction in the concentration of blood proteins. These soluble blood proteins - found in the plasma - are responsible for creating the osmotic pressure which draws tissue fluid into the capillaries. The reduction in the osmotic pressure gradient between blood and tissue fluid means that more fluid leaves the capillaries at the arterial end and less is re-absorbed at the venous end of the capillary network. The fluid then builds up in the tissues, a condition known as oedema.
