In general it is expected that osmotic pressure will be higher in the arteriole end of the capillary bed compared to the venous end osmotic pressure will remain relatively consistent throughout the capillary bed hydrostatic pressure will remain constant throughout the capillary bed osmotic pressure will be lower in the arteriole end of the capillary bed compared to the venous end

Option B, Osmotic pressure will remain relatively consistent throughout the capillary bed

Explanation:

Osmotic pressure is the pressure caused by plasma proteins that exerts a pulling force on water due to the presence of solute in the solution. The major solute of osmotic pressure is the Albumin protein that pulls water into the blood and hence it remains constant.

Hydro-static pressure is stronger at the arteriole end of the capillary and gets weak as the blood moves away from the arteriole.

Hence, option B is correct

b. read the phase at the intersection of any given temperature and pressure.
