How does net filtration pressure change as blood moves from the arterial end to the venous end of a capillary?
Group of answer choices
It decreases, as blood hydrostatic pressure decreases.
It remains the same, as rises in blood osmotic pressure are offset by declines in tissue osmotic pressure.
It increases, as blood colloid osmotic pressure rises.
It increases, as blood hydrostatic pressure rises
It decreases, as blood colloid osmotic pressure decreases.
The correct answer is:
It decreases, as blood hydrostatic pressure decreases.
