QUESTION 6 A systemic capillary has a hydraulic pressure of 35 mm Hg at the arteriole side and a hydraulic pressure of 25 mm Hg on the venule side. Within the capillary, the colloid osmotic pressure is constant at 18 mm Hg. As a result: Fluid will be forced out of the capillary on the arteriole side and all of it will be absorbed by the lymphatics on the venule side Fluid will be absorbed by the capillary on the arteriole side and lymph will be supplied by the lymphatics on the venule side The fluid will be forced out continually from the capillary on both the arteriole and venule side Fluid will be absorbed by the capillary on the arteriole side and forced out of the capillary on the venule side Fluid will be forced out of the capillary at the arteriole side and reabsorbed by the capillary on the venule side
