Using the following data, calculate the filtration coefficient for the capillary bed:

Plasma colloid osmotic pressure = 30 mm Hg

Capillary hydrostatic pressure = 40 mm Hg

Interstitial hydrostatic pressure = 5 mm Hg

Interstitial colloid osmotic pressure = 5 mm Hg

Filtration rate = 150 ml/min

Venous hydrostatic pressure = 10 mm Hg

#Unit 7. System Physiology – Animal
  1. 10 ml/min/mm Hg
  2. 15 ml/min/mm Hg
  3. 20 ml/min/mm Hg
  4. 25 ml/min/mm Hg
