Explain how body proteins help to maintain fluid balance.
What is......
Blood fluid can flow out of arteries to capillaries and extracellular space to provide nutrients. However, proteins cannot move into tissues and remain in capillary beds. Proteins instead exert pressure and therefore attracts fluids back into the blood helping maintain body fluid balance
