Explain fluid movement when the net filtration pressure (NFP) is a negative value
What will be an ideal response?
A negative net filtration pressure (NFP) means that water will flow from the tissue into the capillary, a process called absorption. A negative NFP indicates that colloid osmotic pressure is greater than hydrostatic pressure, so water is pulled into the capillary toward the greater osmotic pressure.
