edema
An excess amount of water in the interstitial fluid is known as: normotensive vasoconstriction hypotension edema
hydrostatic pressure
Blood pressure is equivalent to: oncotic pressure colloid osmotic pressure hydrostatic pressure net filtration pressure
precapillary sphincters
Blood flow through the capillary bed is regulated by: precapillary sphincters tissue perfusion thoroughfare channel metarteriole
Water is pushed out of the capillary by filtration.
In which direction will water move when hydrostatic pressure exceeds colloid osmotic pressure at the arteriolar end of a capillary? There is no net movement of water. Water is pushed out of the capillary by filtration. Water is pulled into the capillary by absorption. Water is pushed into the capillary by absorption.
muscular arteries
Large vessels with all three tunics and a well-developed tunica media are called __________: arterioles veins venules muscular arteries
Transcytosis
Large, lipid-insoluble molecules cross capillary walls by: diffusion transcytosis fenestrations sinusoids
net hydrostatic pressure minus the net colloid osmotic pressure
Net filtration pressure (NFP) is equal to the: capillary osmotic pressure minus interstitial osmotic pressure. net hydrostatic pressure minus the net colloid osmotic pressure. osmotic pressure in the tissue minus the hydrostatic pressure in the blood. colloid osmotic pressure in the blood divided by resistance in the tissue.
fenestrations
Small solutes can pass through small pores in some capillaries known as: continuous capillaries fenestrations sinusoids transcytosis
Oxygen
The main local autoregulatory mechanism of cardiac muscle tissue is: arbon dioxide oxygen norepinephrine epinephrine
Blood colloid osmotic pressure (BCOP)
The most important force driving reabsorption at the venous end of a capillary is: interstitial hydrostatic pressure blood colloid osmotic pressure filtration blood hydrostatic pressure
systole; diastole
Tissue perfusion in the heart decreases during ventricular ______ and increases during ventricular ______: vasodilation; vasoconstriction systole; diastole diastole; systole relaxation; contraction
autoregulation
Tissue perfusion is largely controlled by _________ to ensure that blood flow meets the cells' needs: autoregulation fenestrations resistance microcirculation
Rising arteriolar pressure
Under what conditions will the myogenic mechanism slow blood flow into a capillary bed? Rising carbon dioxide levels Rising hydrogen ion levels Rising arteriolar pressure Dropping arteriole pressure
blood hydrostatic pressure
Water in the blood exerts pressure on the walls of capillaries, generating: net filtration pressure blood hydrostatic pressure edema colloid osmotic pressure

What is the average value for mean arterial pressure (MAP)? 120 mm Hg 150 mm Hg 95 mm Hg 80 mm Hg
Sinusoidal capillaries
What type of capillaries have large pores within their endothelial cells and are the leakiest? Sinusoidal capillaries Closed capillaries Fenestrated capillaries Continuous capillaries
colloid osmotic pressure
