Answer: chemotaxis Q: The cardinal sign of overhydration is? Answer: edema Q: The prime determinants of cellular perfusion are? Answer: the heart, the fluid volume, the blood vessels, and the cells of the body Q: What are colloids? Answer: fluid solution that contains molecules (usually proteins) that are too large to pass out of the capillary membrane, thus remain in the vascular compartment. Large protein give it a very high osmolarity. Q: What are the classic S/S of anaphylactic shock?
