Select the best options;

(Osmosis) (Filtration) occurs close to the arterial side of the capillary bed, while (colloid osmotic pressure) (diffusion) operates toward the venous side.

Expert Solution
Step 1
  • Filtration occurs close to the end of capillary since CHP(Capillary Hydrostatic Pressure) is greater.
  •  Venous side of the circulation is a low pressure system.
  • And the definition of Diffusion is the movement of molecules from high pressure area to low pressure area.
