What is Starling's Law of Capillary forces? How does this explain why a nutritionally deficient child would have edema? - Correct answer-Starling's Law describes how fluids move across the capillary membrane. There are two major opposing forces that act to balance each other, hydrostatic pressure (pushing water out of the capillaries) and osmotic pressure (including oncontic pressure, which pushes fluid into the capillaries). Both electrolytes and proteins (oncontic pressure) in the bloo...

Lesson 1: Homeostasis ● Pressure that is due to albumin in the bloodstream? - Oncotic - a form of osmotic pressure exerted by proteins. In the blood, albumin is the most common plasma protein and is, therefore, a primary determinant of oncotic pressure. - Albumin controls osmotic pressure in vascular system, builds volume - One question was about the difference in children and adult immunity, I believe the answer was naive T cells. - Fluid and electrolyte levels are regulated by osmore...

As Diane completes her race, what enables her body to maintain homeostasis despite her increased activity? Choose 3 answers. Diane's sports drink helped to replace sodium and water lost due to sweating. Diane's body produces more angiotensin II, allowing her body to constrict blood vessels and increase her blood pressure. Diane's kidney reabsorbs more water and sodium in response to ADH and aldosterone. Extracellular fluid shifts into intracellular fluid, expanding cells and s...
