16
Q

What is the definition of gluconeogenesis?

A

the formation of glycogen from non-carbohydrate sources (lipids and protiens)

17
Q

What is ICF?

A

Intracellular fluid (inside the cell)

18
Q

What is ECF?

A

Extracellular fluid (outside the cell)

19
Q

What are the 3 main compartments of iCF and ECF?

A

interstitial fluid-fluid between the cells, plasma-in the blood, lymph-returns fluid back to the blood

20
Q

What are 4 things aldosterone is released as a result of?

A

low na,high k, low blood pressure, low blood pressure

21
Q

Renin is released in response to ___? And causes the production of __________?

A

Low blood pressure and angiotensin 2

22
Q

Angiotensin 2 causes ______ and the release of __________&_____________.

A

vasoconstriction and ADH and aldosterone

23
Q

What are 3 things that increase fluid loss?

A

increased BP, increased capillary permeability, and CHF

24
Q

Name everything you know about whater intoxication….

A

ECF is diluted na levels are normal but there is too much water, hyponatremia-causes osmosis water moves into cells causing swelling and bursting causes major problems with nerves and heart

25
Q

Where is the thirst center located?

A

The hypothalmus

26
Q

Name 3 reasons that the thirst center is activated….

A

Blood volume decreases, blood na/osmolality increases, BP drops

27
Q

What are the functions of “the big 3” elecrtolytes?

A

na/k-nervous and muscle and heart contraction ca-bone,teeth, blood clotting and muscle and heart contraction

28
Q

What solutes are found inside of the cell?

A

k and phosphates

29
Q

What solutes are found outside the cell?

A

na and cl

30
Q

What are 2 fluid pressures and what do you need to know about them?

A

hydrostatic pressure-aka bp forces fluid out of a capillary at the arterial end of a capillary colloid osmotic pressure due to proteins in the blood & electrolytes in the interstitial spaces it forces fluid back into the blood at the venous end of a capillay bed

31
Q

Name the 3 chemical buffers and where they are important….

A

bicarbonate buffer-important in blood , phosphate buffer-important in urine and ICF, plasma protiens-important in blood

32
Q

How do the kidneys regulate acid/basae balance?

A

They reabsorb and generate hco3 and secrete H
