| Front | How does tissue fluid return to capillaries? |
|---|---|
| Back | - loss of tissue fluid leads to low hydrostatic pressure at venule end of capillaries - tissue fluid enters capillary down hydrostatic pressure gradient - blood plasma loses water and retains proteins - more negative water potential - water enters capillary by osmosis down wp gradient |
