51-60 Flashcards
water constitutes how much of total body mass
50-70%
major ECF solute
Na+
major ICF solute
K+
the regulatory mechanism that describes the processes that dictate total body water levels and water compartment movement in the body
osmolality
3 factors that determine sweat evaporation rates
heat, humidity, convection
normal hydration status
Euhydration
muscle cell membranes rupture and leak high amounts of proteins, such as myoglobin and creatine kinase, into the extracellular fluid after abnormally hard or new exercise routines
Exertional rhabdomyolysis
potentially serious medical condition in which the plasma sodium falls below 135 mmol/L, usually the result of fluid intake greatly exceeding sweat losses during prolonged exercise
Exercise Associated Hyponatremia (EAH)
during exercise, on average, the body stores enough glycogen for about how many minutes of endurance exercise
90-120 minutes
