A decrease in which of the following tends to increase filtration rate across a capillary wall?
A)Arterial pressure
B)Hydraulic conductivity of the wall
C)Interstitial albumin concentration
D)Capillary hydrostatic pressure
E)Arteriole resistance

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A decrease in arteriole resistance reduces the pressure drop across the arterioles, leading to an increase in capillary hydrostatic pressure, which in turn increases the filtration rate across the capillary wall.
