Answer: forces favoring filtration minus forces opposing filtration


●● Osmolarity
Answer: concentration of osmotically active particles in a solution


●● isosmotic
Answer: solutions with the same concentrations of solute particles
(osmolarity)

,●● hyposomotic
Answer: solution with lower osmotic pressure. lower outside


●● hyperosmotic
Answer: solution with higher osmolarity. higher inside.


●● isotonic
Answer: two solutions with the same osmotic pressure


●● Hypotonic
Answer: when comparing two solutions, the solution with the lesser
concentration of solutes within the cell


●● Hypertonic
Answer: when comparing two solutions, the solution with the greater
concentration of solutes within the cell


●● Forces favoring filtration
Answer: Capillary hydrostatic pressure (blood pressure) and interstitial
oncotic pressure (water-pulling)


●● Forces favoring reabsorption

, Answer: Plasma (capillary) oncotic pressure (water-pulling)
Interstitial hydrostatic pressure


●● edema
Answer: accumulation of fluid within the interstitial spaces


●● causes of edema
Answer: increased capillary hydrostatic pressure (increased BP),
decrease of plasma oncotic pressure,
obstruction of lymphatic circulation,
increased capillary permeability

Answer: accumulation of fluid in the peritoneal cavity


●● example of increased capillary hydrostatic pressure
Answer: venous obstruction, salt and water retention, heart failure, renal
failure


●● what does increased capillary hydrostatic pressure cause?
Answer: forces fluid into tissues
