Oncotic pressure refers to
a) the osmotic pressure exerted by proteins.
Oncotic pressure is a pulling pressure exerted by proteins, such as
albumin.
b) the number of dissolved particles contained in a unit of fluid.
Osmolality refers to the number of dissolved particles contained in a
unit of fluid.
c) the excretion of substances such as glucose through increased
urine output.
Osmotic diuresis occurs when the urine output increases due to
excretion of substances such as glucose.
d) the amount of pressure needed to stop flow of water by osmosis.
Osmotic pressure is the amount of pressure needed to stop the flow of
water by osmosis.
