Document Summary

At rest, the largest portion of the blood is in systemic veins and venules (blood reservoirs) Diffusion: substances such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, glucose, amino acids and some hormones cross capillary walls via simple diffusion. Trancytosis: large, lipid insoluble molecules (like insulin) cross capillary walls in vesicles via trancytosis: more energetic process. Bulk blow: is a passive process in which large numbers of ions, molecules, or particles in a fluid move together in the same direction. Filtration is pressure-driven movement of fluid and solutes from blood capillaries into interstitial fluid. (inside to surrounding tissues not all the way into the cell, but the fluid bathing the cells interstitial fluid) Blood hydrostatic pressure (bhp) (fluid pressure pushing against the walls of capillaries) and interstitial fluid osmotic pressure (ifop) (in fluid) promote filtration. Reabsorption is pressure-driven movement of fluid and solutes from interstitial fluid into blood capillaries. (opposite direction)
