Physiology Test Question

When considering the forces that govern fluid movement across the capillary wall, which of the following is/are correct?

	(A) A positive net filtration pressure refers to a condition that favors the movement of fluid out of the capillary lumen and into the surrounding interstitial fluid (i.e., fluid filtration out of the capillary).
	(B) A negative net filtration pressure refers to a condition that favors the movement of fluid out of the capillary lumen and into the surrounding interstitial fluid (i.e., fluid filtration out of the capillary).
	(C) A positive net filtration pressure refers to a condition that favors the movement of surrounding interstitial fluid into the capillary lumen (i.e., fluid absorption into the capillary).
	(D) A negative net filtration pressure refers to a condition that favors the movement of surrounding interstitial fluid into the capillary lumen (i.e., fluid absorption into the capillary).
