Tissue fluid is formed from the plasma by process of diffusion and filtration. This fluid occupies the intracellular space and forms the connecting link in the transport of nutrition, gases and the metabolic end products between blood capillaries, tissue cells and the lymph. It constitutes the internal environment of the body, which surrounds tissue cells.
functions of Tissue Fluid:
i. It constitutes the internal medium in which the tissue cells are bathed. The cells draw in oxygen and nutrition from the tissue fluid and excrete their metabolites into it. Hence, tissue fluid may be regarded as the medium which supplies all the immediate requirements of the cell.
