Answer:
Consider the arteriolar end of a capillary bed. During capillary exchange, the process of <u>filtration </u>is favored at the arteriolar end due to the higher <u>hydrostatic</u> pressure.
Explanation:
The <u>net filtration pressure</u> at the arteriolar end of the capillary bed is more than 10mmHg. That is why the fluid exits capillary since <u>capillary hydrostatic pressure</u> is 35mmHg that is greater than <u>blood colloidal osmotic pressure</u> which is 25mmHg.
Hence during capillary exchange, the process of <u>filtration </u>is favored at the arteriolar end due to the higher <u>hydrostatic</u> pressure.
The correct answer is hypothesis.
The hypothesis can be defined and a statement, which is a possible answer to a scientific question. The hypothesis is proposed on the basis of the researches and the tests, which are already performed. the hypothesis can be tested through different experimental processes and can be proved or disproved according to the results obtained by the experimentation.
