    Answer;

    D) concentration of plasma proteins.

    Explanation; Colloid osmotic pressure is the osmotic pressure resulting from the difference within the extracellular fluid between the protein contents of plasma and interstitial fluid. This pressure is created by the concentration of colloidal proteins in the blood. Its effect on capillary exchange accounts for the reabsorption of water.
