Question

When plasma enters the tissues, it is called _______ fluid.
A) tissue
B) blood
C) interstitial

Accepted Answer

When plasma exits the blood vessels and enters the tissues, it is referred to as interstitial fluid, which essentially bathes the cells in the tissue. This makes both "tissue fluid" and "interstitial fluid" correct terms for plasma in the tissues.
