Question

Which of the following will INCREASE fluid movement OUT of

capillaries and into the
tissue? Indicate all that are correct.
a increased MAP
b increase in plasma proteins
c vasoconstriction of art

Answer 1

Increased MAP and vasoconstriction of arterioles will increase fluid movement out of capillaries and into the tissue.

Step-by-step explanation:

option a is correct

Increased MAP (mean arterial pressure) and vasoconstriction of arterioles will INCREASE fluid movement OUT of capillaries and into the tissue. An increase in MAP will increase hydrostatic pressure in the capillaries, pushing fluid out into the tissues. Vasoconstriction of arterioles will increase resistance to blood flow, increasing the hydrostatic pressure and driving fluid out of the capillaries into the tissue.
