In congestive heart failure fluid is leaking from capillaries and there will be evidence of edema in some regions of the body. The reason this fluid is accumulating outside of vessels is because ________________________. Group of answer choices 1)the increased flow to the vessels resulting from the stenosis, results in greater leaking by the capillaries. 2)capillaries are porous structures, and in the event of an increased fluid volume contained within the backed up vessels (in the atrium lets say), more leakage happens. 3)the pressure in the chest increases with stenosis, and capillaries in the abdominal organs leak. 4)with lower flow of blood to the atria, fluid leaks from the ventricles
