(a)
Interpretation:
Whether blood pressure or osmotic pressure possesses the highest influence on the fluid movement direction through capillary walls at the venous end of a capillary is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The process of movement of solvent through semipermeable membrane is known as osmosis. The pressure applied to prevent the flow of the solvent molecules through semipermeable membrane is known as osmotic pressure.
(b)
Interpretation:
