Q

What are the common causes of extracellular edema?

A

Abnormal leakage of fluid from the plasma to the interstitial spaces

Failure of the lymphatic vessels to return fluid from the tissues back into the blood (lymphedema)

Increased capillary pressure, decreased plasma protein, increased capillary permeability, blockage of lymph return

Q

What three conditions leads to increased release of aldosterone ?

A

Fall in plasma volume / decrease blood pressure

Increased ECF osmolarity-> Na+ is not reabsorbed

Q

Hormone-mediated responses to water balance usually affect what?

A

Dietary absorption and urinary excretion

17
Q

One-third of body fluid is _____________ fluid

A

Extracellular

18
Q

What is the function of Na+ in the body?

A 
Fluid volume of ECF
Increase plasma membrane permeability 
Body water distribution 
Acid-base balance 
Nerve transmission
19
Q

The higher the aldosterone concentration the more efficiently the kidneys will (reabsorb or secrete)? Sodium

A

Reabsorb

Conservation of sodium ions stimulates water retention

20
Q

What is the function of Cl- in the body?

A

HCl in the stomach

Neve impulses

21
Q

Physiological adjustments are regulated by ________

A

Hormones

22
Q

About 1% of ECF is found is spaces such as lymphatic vessels, CSF, synovial joints, humors of the eye, ect. What is this water called?

A

Trancellular water

23
Q

What functions of the body require CA2+

A 
Bone and teeth building 
Blood coagulation 
Muscle contraction 
Neural transmission 
Enzyme activation 
Messenger molecule
24
Q

A fluid shift occurs due to changes in _______ of the ECF

A

Osmolality

25
Q

What are the functions of electrolytes in the body?

A

Normal cell metabolism and body structure (eg Ca2+ in bone)

Facilitate osmotic movement of water

Maintain hydrogen ion concentration

Production and maintenance of membrane potential and action potential

26
Q

Two-thirds of body fluid is __________ fluid

A

Intracellular

27
Q

Transient binding of water molecules

A

Hydrogen bond

Bound to others “flickering cluster”

28
Q

_______ is the presence of excess fluid in the tissues (mainly ECC)

A

Edema

29
Q

What three hormones normally regulate fluid loss?

A 
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) 
Aldosterone 
Atrial natriureteic peptide (ANP)
30
Q

What is transcellular fluid? Does it have a major role in fluid balance in the body?

A

Fluid within a body compartment (eg ocular fluid, CSF)

No affect on fluid balance of body

31
Q

Where is water lost?

A

Kidney
Skin (sweat)
Lungs - exhaled water vapor
GI tract- feces

32
Q

Osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus stimulates ADH release due to (increase/decrease)? In osmolarity

A

Increase

The greater the osmolarity, the more ADH released

33
Q

What does it mean for diffusion to be balanced?

A

Amount moving into a cell is equal to the amount moving out.

Net movement of water is zero and cell volume remains constant

34
Q

K+, Mg2+, Phosphate, and proteins have a higher concentration inside/outside the cell?

A

Inside

Intracellular

35
Q

Molecules with no polar bonds, insoluble in water. (C-H bonds)

A

Hydrophobic molecules

36
Q

What is a solution?

A

A solute dissolved in a solvent

37
Q

Asymmetrically arranged electrons on a water molecule makes it ________

A

Polar

Slightly negative end, and slightly positive end
