Given the Following Forces Acting at a Given Point Across

Given the following forces acting at a given point across the capillary wall,what type of fluid movement will be taking place at that point?
- capillary blood pressure = 32 mm Hg
- blood-colloid osmotic pressure = 23 mm Hg
- interstitial-fluid hydrostatic pressure = 1 mm Hg
- interstitial-fluid-colloid osmotic pressure = 0 mm Hg

A) Ultrafiltration will occur with a net outward pressure of 8 mm Hg.
B) Ultrafiltration will occur with a net outward pressure of 10 mm Hg.
C) Ultrafiltration will occur with a net outward pressure of 56 mm Hg.
D) Reabsorption will occur with a net inward pressure of 24 mm Hg.
