Question

multiple choice question
which type of pressure is defined as the difference between the colloid osmotic pressure (cop) of blood and tissue fluid?

oncotic
hydrostatic
colloid osmotic

Explanation:

Oncotic pressure (also known as colloid osmotic pressure difference) is defined as the difference between the colloid osmotic pressure of blood and tissue fluid. Hydrostatic pressure relates to fluid pressure due to gravity/volume, and colloid osmotic pressure alone is not the difference. So the correct option is the one with "Oncotic".

Answer:

Oncotic (the option labeled "Oncotic")
