Question

multiple choice question
blood pressure generated by the ventricular contraction provides the force for ______ in capillaries.
osmosis
active transport
filtration
diffusion

Explanation:

Blood pressure from ventricular contraction forces fluid and small - solutes out of capillaries into the interstitial space, which is filtration. Osmosis is the movement of water across a semi - permeable membrane due to solute concentration differences. Active transport requires energy to move substances against their concentration gradient. Diffusion is the movement of substances from an area of high concentration to low concentration.

Answer:

C. filtration
