Fluids Week 11 lecture Flashcards
How much of our body mass is made of H20
45-60%
How much of a babies body is water?
70-80%
What are the 2 compartments that organize water in our bodies?
Intracellular- 2/3rds water * Cytosol inside cells * Adipose tissue = H20 free- hydrophobic *Muscle tissue= lots of water Extracellular- 1/3rd water *Intestinal fluid *Plasma * Lymph vessles - 3 liters
Over 24 hours how much CSF leaves through ventricles
20L
17L returns to body
3L collects in Lymph system
What are the 2 sources of water intake
Ingested - preformed H20
Metabolic water - made in body - 200L made by mitochondria
How much water is consumed in drinks
How much water is consumed in food
1600mL consumed drinks
700mL consumed food
How much water do we lose a day
2500ml
- 1500mL urine
- 500mL skin
- 300 mL respiration
- 200 mL feces
What are the small particles in fluid called
Solutes
What are the 2 main types of solutes
Non-electrolytes
Electrolytes
What type of bonds are in non-electrolytes
Covalent - do not dissociate in h20
What are the 2 most abundent types of non-electrolytes for homeostasis
- Gluclose
2. Urea
Describe osmosis
Osmosis is the movement of water or other solvent through a plasma membrane from a region of low solute concentration to a region of high solute concentration. Osmosis is passive transport, meaning it does not require energy to be applied.
What is urea
related to protein use/ amino acids
What type of bonds are in electrolytes
Ionic bonds- dissolve in h20
What are the 3 types on Electrolytes
Acids
Bases
Salts
Acids are electrolytes that…
give off hydrogen in H20 ex. HCl
What is the difference between strong and weak acids
Strong acids - give off all H - cause durastic change in solution
Weak acids - do not give off all H
0 on the pH scale means it is higher or lower in hydrogen concentration
Higher
14 on the pH scale means it is higher or lower in the hydrogen concentration
Lower
Bases are electrolytes that…
Give off OH- groups (Hydroxyl groups)
ex. KOH - potassium hydroxide
Salts are electrolytes that…
Give off neither H or OH groups
