Chapter 27: Fluid, Electrolyte and Acid-Base Balance II

Question 1

Drinking a solution hypotonic to the ECF causes the ECF to:

Answer 1

increase in volume and become hypotonic to the ICF

Question 2

The osmotic concentration of the ECF decreases if an individual gains water without a corresponding

Answer 2

gain of electrolytes

Question 3

When the pH of body fluids begin to decrease, free amino acids proteins will bind

Answer 3

a hydrogen at the amino group

Question 4

In a protein buffer system, if the pH increases

Answer 4

a hydrogen ion is released and a carboxylate ion is formed

Question 5

A state in which the amount of water gained is equal to the amount lost to the enviroment

Answer 5

Fluid Balance

Question 6

When there is neither a net gain nor net loss of any ion in body fluids

Answer 6

Electrolyte Balance
