Listed Below Are the Hydrostatic and Oncotic Pressures Across a Muscle

question 1

Short Answer

Listed below are the hydrostatic and oncotic pressures across a muscle capillary wall.
Venous hydrostatic pressure $= 5 \mathrm {~mm} \mathrm { Hg }$
Arterial pressure $= 100 \mathrm {~mm} \mathrm { Hg }$
Capillary hydrostatic pressure $= 35 \mathrm {~mm} \mathrm { Hg }$
Plasma colloid osmotic pressure $= 25 \mathrm {~mm} \mathrm { Hg }$
Interstitial colloid osmotic pressure $= 10 \mathrm {~mm} \mathrm { Hg }$
Interstitial hydrostatic pressure $= - 5 \mathrm {~mm} \mathrm { Hg }$
What is the net filtration pressure (in $\mathrm { mm } \mathrm { Hg }$ ) for fluid movement across the capillary wall?
A. 0
B. 5
C. 10
D. 15
