Q

Venules

A

Larger than arterioles
Have a much weaker muscular coat
Pressure is lesser than arterioles
Site at which leukocytes leaves the circulation mostly
Can contract despite the weak muscle

4
Q

Arterioles

A

Contains thick smooth muscle —> makes is strong
Resistant vessel of blood circulation
When dilates more blood will flow
Resistance is determined by neural and hormonal input

Q

Role of intracellular clefts

A

Water, water soluble ions and small solutes diffuse between the interior and exterior of the capillaries through these slit-pores

Q

Two major types of solid structures that Intertitium contains

A

Collagen fiber bundles
Proteoglycan filaments —> hyaluronic acid, protein

19
Q

What is the major driving force for fluid tp entering to lymphatics

A

Interstitial pressure

20
Q

Filtration

A

Movement of molecules due to pressure force

21
Q

Fluid in the Intertitium is derived by

A

Filtration from the capillaries

22
Q

How does Dilating the arterioles effects the capillary hydrostatic pressure in that bed

23
Q

Increased capillary hydrostatic pressure causes

A

Increased filtration

24
Q

Capillary pressure

A

Against Interstitial fluid pressure
Forcing fluid to leave the blood side and enter to the interstitial fluid side

25
Plasma colloid osmotic pressure caused by
Plasma proteins
26
Decrease in plasma colloid osmotic pressure causes
Edema Decrease in blood volume Fluid is not absorbed into the bloodstream
27
Plasma colloid pressure forces sluice movement from ?
From Interstitium into capillary blood
28
At which end the capillary pressure is greater
At the arterial end it is greater than the venous end
29
Four primary forces that determines fluid movement to the capillary membrane
Capillary pressure Interstitial fluid pressure Plasma colloid osmotic pressure Interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure
30
Gibbs Donnan effect
Behavior of charged particles across a semipermeable membrane
31
Starling forces equation
Qf= kf( Capillary hydrostatic pressure + Intertitial fluid oncotic pressure) - ( Intertitial fluid hydrostatic pressure + Plasma oncotic pressure)
32
What happens when the sum is positive
Net filtration from capillaries to interstitial tissue
33
What happens when sum is negative
Net absorption from interstitial
34
At which side of capillary absorption or filtration occurs
Artery end= Filtration Venous end= Absorption
35
Increase in pulmonary capillary pressure is related to
Left ventricular failure
36
Rise in arterial or venous pressure results with
Increase in capillary hydrostatic pressure
37
Increase in arteriolar resistance results with
Reduce in capillary pressure
38
Congestive heart failure
Blood accumulation in the right atrium
39
Lymphatics carry what from where
Carry proteins and large participate matter away from the tissue spaces
40
The endothelial cells of the lymphatic capillaries attached to surrounding CT by
Anchoring filaments
41
In where the composition of protein in the lymph increases
Liver Intestine
42
Lymphatic system is important in the absorption of
Fat from the digestive tract
43
Functions of the lymph
Return of excess filtrated fluid Return of filtrated protein Defense against disease Transport of absorbed fat
44
Rate of the lymph flow is determined by two factors
The Intertitial fluid pressure The degree of activity of the lymphatic pump
