If a body is edematous, you want moisture to move from the
tissues into the drainage, so you would use a(n) ISOTONIC

The femoral artery begins at a point behind the center of the
inguinal ligament and terminates at the opening in the
,ABDUCTOR MAGNUS muscle. - ----Answers----F: Adductor
Longus Muscle
Osmosis is the movement of solvent from an area of greater
solvent to an area of lesser solvent across a PERMEABLE
membrane - ----Answers----F: Semi-permeable membrane
If my arterial solution is HYPOTONIC, it will draw fluid out of
the tissues, into the veins, and leave the body as part of the

Answers----T
Osmosis is the movement of SOLUTE. - ----Answers----F:
solvent
Osmosis is the movement of solvent from an area of lesser
solute concentration to an area of greater solute concentration
across a semipermeable membrane. - ----Answers----T
DIFFUSION is the movement of embalming solution from the
point of injection, throughout the arterial system, and into the
capillaries. - ----Answers----F: DISTRIBUTION
,If a body has normal moisture content, it may become slightly

Answers----F: 15 minute period
The center of drainage in the dead human body is the
ascending aorta. - ----Answers----F: RIGHT ATRIUM
, Regarding postmortem changes: The embalming significance
of rigor mortis is that it creates an extravascular resistance. -
