Fluid, Electrolyte And Acid-base Balance Part 1

Is the pressure exerted by a fluid within a closed system on the walls of a container in which it is contained.

The principle involved in this method of fluid movement is that fluids move from the area of greater pressure to the area of lesser pressure.

This is the difference  between the hydrostatic pressure and the osmotic pressure.

When the hyrdrostatic pressure is greater than the osmotic pressure, the fluid filters out of the blood vessels.

Is the movement of pure solvent across cell membranes from the less concentrated solution to the more concentrated solution

Are substances dissolved in liquids.

What are the two types of solutes?

Substances or salts that readily dissolve in true solutions.

Substances that does not readily dissolve into true solutions.

Is the component of a solution that can dissolve a solute.

The concentration of a solution is expressed as?

It is the standard of unit of osmotic pressure.

Is the drawing power of solvent such as water

Give an example of an active transport system.

Sodium are in higher concentration in the ECF and potassium concentrations are higher in ICF

Which body mechanism is the primary regulator of fluid intake  in the body?

Cite 3 stimuli that triggers the thirst center in the brain?

This enzyme is a potent vasoconstrictor.

How long does it take for drank fluid to be absorbed and distributed throughout the body?

Name the four routes of fluid output.

What is the normal urine output in 24 hrs?

What are the 8 factors that affects fluid and electrolyte imbalance?

Serum albumin draws fluid from the interstitial into the blood through osmosis.

Stress increases blood glucose concentration.

Stress increases ADH production.
