Which of the following is not a true comparison between lymphatic capillaries and blood capillaries? A. Lymphatic capillaries have mini valves that allow fluid to only flow into the vessels that are absent in blood capillaries B. Lymphatic capillaries have thicker walls than blood capillaries C. Lymphatic capillaries have larger diameters than blood capillaries D. Lymphatic capillaries originate as pockets rather than the continuous tubes of blood capillaries

Why does blood move slower in the capillaries compared to the arterioles?Multiple ChoiceCapillaries are much wider than arterioles.Blood pressure is much higher in capillaries than in arterioles.There are many more capillaries than arterioles.Precapillary sphincters close shunting blood into capillaries.

In capillary beds, the net inward pressure at the venular ends of the capillaries is less than the net outward pressure at the arteriolar ends of the capillaries. What is the result of this difference in pressures?Multiple ChoiceLymphatic vessels push fluid into the capillaries.More fluid flows into the capillaries than moves out.More fluid leaves the capillaries than returns.Pressure in the venules increases.

Which of the following statements is false concerning the movement of fluid between capillaries and interstitial space? Question 4Select one:a.Blood hydrostatic pressure forces fluid from the capillary to the interstitial space.b.Blood osmotic pressure moves fluid from the interstitial space to the capillary. c.The osmotic pressure of the interstitial fluid is less than the blood osmotic pressure. d.The hydrostatic pressure of the interstitial fluid is largely unimportant in determining fluid movement. e.The net filtration pressure is usually zero.

In what way are lymphatic vessels unlike veins in the cardiovascular system?Multiple Choiceone-way systemcontain valvestake up excess tissue fluiddependent upon skeletal muscle contractiontransport fluid

Write down the difference between the arteries, capillaries and veins.
