Homeostasis Flashcards
Is ICF homogeneous?
No, it represent a conglomeration of fluid From all the different cells
What is the primarily solution of ICF?
Potassium
Organic anions
Proteins
What is the primarily solution of ECF,
NaCl
NaHCo3 (sodium bicarbonate)
ISF does surround the cell but does it circulate it?
No
Is IVF = blood plasma?
And does it circulate extracellular component of blood?
Both are yes
What’s the definition of TCF?
And where can you find it?
1: is a set of fluid that are outside of normal compartment
2: cerebrospinal fluid in CNS
Gastrointestinal fluid
Synovial fluid at joints
Glandular secretion
Bile
Homeostasis = stability of ECF?
Yes
Which compartment of ECF must remain constant?
ISF
ISF remains constant, if the composition of plasma remains constant
List the components of homeostasis
Isovolemia
Isosmosis
Isoionia
Isohydria
If the ISF remains constant and what else must remains constant too?
Plasma
