Heart Blood vessels. (Arteries, Capillaries, and Veins)
Answer:
Suppose that at a given point along a capillary, the following forces exist: Capillary hydrostatic pressure (HPc) = 30 mmHg Interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure (HPif) = 0 mmHg Capillary colloid osmotic pressure (OPc) = 25 mmHg Interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure (OPif) = 2 mmHg. The net filtration pressure at this point in the capillary is <u>7mmHg.</u>
Explanation:
Capillary hydrostatic pressure (HPc) = 30 mmHg
Interstitial fluid hydrostatic pressure (HPif) = 0 mmHg
Capillary colloid osmotic pressure (OPc) = 25 mmHg
Interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure (OPif) = 2 mmHg
Net filtration pressure= hydrostatic pressure gradient - Oncotic pressure gradient
Hydrostatic pressure gradient = Capillary hydrostatic pressure - Interstitial hydrostatic pressure = 30mmHg - 0 mmHg = 30 mmHg
Oncotic pressure gradient = Capillary colloid osmotic pressure - Interstitial fluid colloid osmotic pressure =25 - 2 = 23 mmHg
Net filtration pressure= hydrostatic pressure gradient - Oncotic pressure gradient = 30 mmHg - 23 mmHg = 7 mmHg.
Hence, The net filtration pressure at this point in the capillary is <u>7mmHg.</u>
Answer: C. Histologist
Explanation:
A cell biologist refers to a person who studies cells and their functions and their interactions with the biological organisms.
A taxonomist refers to a biologist who classifies organisms into their categories.
A histologist, can also be called a histotechnician, and this is someone who prepares tissue samples for the pathologist to study. A histologist cut samples from organs which are used for microscopic tissue analysis.
Palaeontologist is a person who studies fossils in order to get information regarding life on Earth.
