(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The line which represents the change in pressure if the arterioles are constricted along with its justification.

Introduction: The blood is pumped from the heart to aorta which further circulates it to various small arterioles. These arterioles are responsible for carrying the blood to every part of the body. Arterioles experience variable resistance due to the presence of vascular smooth muscles. The contraction and relaxation of these muscles alter the diameter of arterioles.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The change in net filtration rate due to a change in pressure from line A to B along with its justification.

Introduction: The mass movement of fluid is known as bulk flow. If the movement of fluid is into the capillary, then it would be called absorption. On the contrary, if the movement of fluid is out of the capillary, then it would be called filtration.
