Starlings forces is talking about hydrostatic and oncotic pressures in the capillaries/interstitial fluid. The four forces are hydrostatic capillary pressure, oncotic capillary pressure, hydrostatic interstitial, and oncotic interstitial. (Oncotic = colloid osmotic) Hydrostatic is the pressure from the fluid (in this case water) while oncotic is pressure created by proteins in the blood plasma. Greater hydrostatic pressure in the capillaries leads to filtration, while water will move into the capillaries if oncotic pressure is higher, because water potential is lower.

Also to note, Starling’s Law and Starlings Forces are two different things, so if it ever asks about Starling’s Law, it refers to stroke volume and end diastolic pressure in the heart (more in; more out).

Ok, so the general equation for starling's forces is just (all forms of hydrostatic pressure) - (all forms of oncotic pressure)?

Are medals achievable even if your partner is doing nothing? For ex, I am doing 2 systems and my partner is doing 1. He is not working very hard, and not giving A+P too much time.

I tried doing his studies too but it too hard at the last moment, so I am really questioning my chances of winning a medal?

My friend managed to get 1st with a kinda bad partner, so it's definitely possible. You just have to be really passionate and study as much as possible.
Keep on going :)

Hi, I was having a hard time finding a diagram for thymus which would be appropriate for the competition. So could someone pls help?

Thank You for the positive note, I am trying my best to not depend on my partner.

In situations like this, it's best to give the weaker partner the stuff like labeling stuff on diagrams, writing down things verbatim from the notesheet while you the harder theory. They should know the basics at least of the system that they are supposed to be doing, it may help you to study a bit of their system though.

i was in the same boat last year, my partner was busy with her build event and couldn't answer much from resp system. we still managed to get 4th in the state because i studied my systems well and basics of Resp system. a good cheat sheet will be the key. all the best.

no
[ Hydrostatic pressure of inside the capillary(pushes water out) + osmotic pressure of interstitium (pulls water out into interstitium) ] - [hydrostatic pressure in the interstitium (pushes water from coming into interstitium) + osmotic pressure in capillary (tries to pull water into capillary)]

This is my understanding of it. someone please correct me if i am wrong.

From my understanding, the general equation for Starling's forces is (Capillary hydrostatic - interstitial hydrostatic) - (Capillary oncotic - interstitial oncotic) in terms of variables. There are coefficients in the equation (filtration coefficient, reflection coefficient). There are versions of the equation with variables defined under google images.

Conceptually, hydrostatic pressure will move water out because there is more free water (greater water potential), while oncotic pressure will draw water to an area, due to a lower water potential, with water potential being the amount of free water unbound to solutes and water moving from areas of high to low potential. For example, higher hydrostatic pressure inside the capillaries will increase the water potential and move water out of the capillary IF the concentration of solutes in the interstitial fluid is greater. If the concentration of solutes inside the capillary is greater (aka a lower water potential and greater oncotic pressure) than the interstitium, then water will move into the capillary.

The Starling's forces equation refers specifically to the net flow of fluid between capillary and interstitial spaces. A positive net flux means that water is leaving the capillary (Hydrostatic>oncotic) while a negative flux indicates water entering (oncotic>hydrostatic). Hopefully, this explanation is helpful!
