Blood colloidal osmotic pressure is maintained by

Solution
The correct option is A Albumin
Colloid osmotic pressure, is a form of osmotic pressure, which is exerted by protein, known as albumin in a blood vessel's plasma (blood/liquid) that usually tends to pull water into the circulatory system. Albumin constitutes approximately 80% of the total oncotic pressure exerted by blood plasma on interstitial fluid. Maintaining the proper pressure ensures that the body tissues maintain the proper levels of liquid. Hence, option A is correct.
