Question

if a person develops high blood pressure, one of the compensatory mechanisms that comes into play is the fluid shift mechanism. this mechanism causes
multiple - choice
water to shift from inside cells into the extracellular fluid
water to shift from the capillaries into the interstitial spaces
water to shift from the interstitial space into the capillaries.
increased filtration in the kidney, thereby increasing urine output.
water to stay inside the capillaries.

Explanation:

When a person has high blood - pressure, the fluid shift mechanism causes water to shift from the capillaries into the interstitial spaces to decrease the volume of fluid in the blood vessels and thus lower blood pressure. This is a compensatory response to reduce the pressure in the circulatory system.

Answer:

water to shift from the capillaries into the interstitial spaces
