Read the topic of capillary exchange from ebook. Watch the videolecture above that explains this topic. Then attempt the following2 questions. Make sure to give details and show all calculations. Ihave UNDERLINED key questions within the assignment to help you allfocus on important concepts
a. How do the pressures drive fluid flow across the arterial andthe venous end of capillary bed? Explain all pressures interactingat the capillary bed. Also provide the formula showing interactionof different pressures. Give the normal or standard values of allthe pressures involved and calculate Net Filtration Pressure atarterial and venous end.
b. Now Calculate the Net Filtration Pressure at the arterial andthe venous end in a patient suffering from liver disease. In whichdirection does the fluid flow now at both the ends of capillarybed? What are the clinical consequences in this condition?
