Chapter 13 (Part 2)

Question 1

what kind of flow occurs when you hear no sound?

Answer 1

laminar flow

Question 2

what kind of flow occurs when you hear audible vibrations?

Answer 2

turbulent flow

Question 3

where are fenestrated capillaries found? (3)

Answer 3

1. endocrine glands
2. intestinal villi
3. kidney glomeruli

Question 4

what is “bulk flow” ?

Answer 4

the overall movement of water and any dissolved solutes across capillaries

Question 5

overall movement of water and any dissolved solutes across capillaries is called?

Answer 5

bulk flow

Question 6

what causes bulk flow? and what is that again?

Answer 6

movement of water and any dissolved solutes across capillaries

due to hydrostatic and osmotic pressure gradients

Question 7

movement out of capillaries is called?

Answer 7

filtration

Question 8

movement into capillaries is called?

Answer 8

absorption

Question 9

absorption: in or out of capillaries?

Answer 9

in

Question 10

filtration: in or out of capillaries?

Answer 10

out

Question 11

moves or doesn’t move across capillaries: protein-free plasma

Answer 11

moves

Question 12

moves or doesn’t move across capillaries: most blood proteins

Answer 12

don’t move

Question 13

what is hydrostatic pressure?

Answer 13

fluid pushing against container walls

Question 14

as fluid gets pushed out, fluid increases in the interstitial region, creating hydrostatic pressure. so what?

Answer 14

hydrostatic pressure in the interstitial space helps push material back into the capillary bed on the venule side to facilitate absorption

Question 15

bulk flow is also affected by osmotic pressure. how do we define osmotic pressure here?

Answer 15

the force exerted on water by nonpermeating solutes (mostly proteins)

Question 16

my lymphatic system multitasks. what are the two things it does?

Answer 16

1. returns excess fluid and proteins from tissues to blood that got filtered out of capillaries
2. serves as part of the innate immune system
