Ch. 20 Flashcards
Fick Principle
Oxygen Extraction ration should increase with increasing metabolic demand, but decrease with increasing blood flow.
Solute Flux
J_x = P_x([X]_c - [X]_if)
Positive Jx = flow out of capillary
Negative Jx = flow into capillary
What factors favor filtration?
Increase: hydrostatic capillary pressure, osmotic interstitial fluid pressure
Decrease: hydrostatic interstitial fluid, osmotic capillary pressure
What factors favor absorption?
Increase: osmotic capillary pressure, hydrostatic interstitial fluid pressure
Decrease: osmotic interstitial fluid, hydrostatic capillary pressure
Write the common values of P_c, P_if, pie_c, and pie_if on the Arteriolar End and Venular End.
