True False

C. An increase in capillary permeability.
True False

D. A fall in atmospheric pressure.
True False

True False

Question 25. Arterial pressure:

A. Tends to decrease with age because of a fall in cardiac output.
True False

B. Is lower in the pulmonary than the systemic circulation because pulmonary vascular resistance is lower.
True False
