Water movement between the intracellular fluid osmotic forces.
compartment & the extracellular compartment is
primarily a function of
The movement of water between ICF & ECF
compartments is primarily a function of osmotic
forces. (Osmosis & other mechanisms of passive
transport are discussed in Chapter 1.)
How does the loss of chloride during vomiting Loss of chloride causes retention of bicarbonate
cause metabolic alkalosis to maintain the anion balance.
When acid loss is caused by vomiting with
depletion of ECF & chloride (hypochloremic
metabolic alkalosis), renal compensation is not
very effective because the volume depletion &
loss of electrolytes (Na+, K+, H+, Cl-) stimulate a
paradoxical response by the kidneys. The kidneys
increase sodium & bicarbonate reabsorption with
excretion of hydrogen. Bicarbonate is reabsorbed
to maintain an anionic balance because the ECF
chloride concentration is decreased.

What is a major determinant of the resting The ratio between intracellular K+ & extracellular
membrane potential necessary for transmission of potassium
nerve impulses?
The ratio of K+ in the ICF to K+ in the ECF is the
major determinant of the resting membrane
potential, which is necessary for the transmission
& conduction of nerve impulses, maintenance of
normal cardiac rhythms, & skeletal & smooth
