1.67 pts
concerning the exchange between blood and interstitial fluid at systemic capillaries,
more fluid is absorbed and reabsorbed than is filtered.
the fluid reabsorbed into the capillary exactly matches the amount filtered by the capillary.
more fluid is filtered than reabsorbed.

Brief Explanations

At systemic capillaries, due to hydrostatic and colloid - osmotic pressures, more fluid is filtered out of the capillaries into the interstitial space than is reabsorbed back into the capillaries. The remaining fluid is eventually returned to the circulation via the lymphatic system.

more fluid is filtered than reabsorbed.
