Module 7 Flashcards
Cation electrolytes
Sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium
positively charged ions
Anion
Bicarbonate
Chloride
Phosphorus
Negatively charged ions
Non-electrolytes
Salutes with no electrical charge
Glucose
Urea
How much percentage of the body does extracellular fluids and intercellular fluid to make
60%
Extracellular equals 15%
Extra cellular fluid equals 45%
What is the percentage of solids in the body?
40%
Extracellular fluid includes
Plasma,
blood (mostly )
Vascular space
Fluid around cells
Intercellular fluid has more electrolytes because
It uses osmosis and pulls the water towards the salt as it is more electrolyte rich
Osmosis
Water from a high concentration to low concentration
Pulls towards the salty side
Active transport
(ATP) the movement of molecules against a concentration gradient with the help of energy
Filtration
Movement of specific molecules across the cell membrane through protein channels
Example kidney in blood
Diffusion
Area of high concentration to an area of low concentration
Hypertonic solution
Cell shrinks
Increased osmotic pressure to NBF
Hypotonic solution
Cell swells
Decreased osmotic pressure to nbf
Isotonic solution
Cell stays same size
Same osmotic pressure to NBF
Isotonic examples
Ringers lactate
Normal saline
DW5 ( becomes hypertonic after)
