3) A nurse is taking your blood pressure and compresses the arteries in your arm. Which of the following will occur? A A. The pressure before/upstream of the constriction will increase B. The pressure gradient will increase causing the blood flow to increase C. The pressure gradient will decrease causing the blood flow to decrease D. The radius of the vessel will decrease causing the blood flow to increase E. The radius of the vessel will decrease and blood flow will not change 4) Given the following data, calculate the net filtration pressure across this capillary. Osmotic force of plasma proteins= 26 mmHg Capillary hydrostatic pressure = 27 mmHg Osmotic force of interstitial proteins= 8 mmHg Interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure = 3 mmHg A. 0 mmHg, there is no net fluid movement into or out of the capillary B. - 4 mmHg causing reabsorption C. + 4 mmHg causing filtration D. - 6 mmHg causing reabsorption E.+ 6 mmHg causing filtration
