QUESTION
symptoms of fluid imbalances
Answer:
Hypervolemia (too much fluid): increased uri- nation, dilute urine
Hypovolemia (decreased fluid): decreased urination, concentrated urine
QUESTION
Osmosis
Answer:
Movement of pure solvent (liquid) across a semipermeable mem- brane. Literally pulls water in
and out of cells by osmotic pressure.
(Used by sodium to control body's fluid balance)
Pressure moves water from area of lesser concentration of solutes to the area of greater
concentration
until there are equal concentrations on each side
Between the ISF and the ICF and Between the ISF and IVF
Water diffuses by osmosis in the body from an area of less solute concentration to an area of
more solute concentration
QUESTION
Diffusion
Answer:
, is the process by which substances freely move back and forth across the membrane until they
are evenly distributed throughout the available space. Sub- stances move from a high to a low
concentration until the concentration on both sides of the membrane is equal. This is called
movement down a concentration gradient. Glucose, oxygen, carbon dioxide, water, and other
small ions and molecules move by this process. It is a process of equalization.
QUESTION
Filtration
Answer:
•water and substances move through a semipermeable membrane due to a pushing force -
hydrostatic pressure
. The pumping action of the heart creates hydrostatic pressure
QUESTION
Active Transport
Answer:
Moves molecules into cells regardless of their electrical charge or concentration level (moves
substances
across cell membranes using chemical energy and carrier molecules) Requires Cellular Energy
(ATP)
Amino acids, glucose, iron, hydrogen, sodium, potassium, and calcium through cell membranes
QUESTION
What are the functions of water
Answer:
Maintains blood volume Cellular transport of vital substances ( O2 and glucose) Transport of
waste products to lungs and kidneys
Lubrication and cushioning Breakdown of food in GI system Medium for chemical reactions in
cells Maintenance of body temp.
QUESTION
How much water does an adult male, women, have?
, Answer:
In a healthy adult male:
60%. In healthy female adult : 50%
QUESTION
What transport requires energy
Answer:
active transport
QUESTION
Sodium-potassium pump is an example of what is needed in a type of transport. What is that
type of transport
Answer:
Active trandsport
QUESTION
What happens when there is a fluid imbalance?
Answer:
fluid imbalance exists when the body has an excess (too much) or a deficit (too little) of water.
When this occurs, there will be an accompanying imbalance in the substances dissolved in the
water. When considering sodium imbalances, it is important to remember that water follows
sodium in the body. The sodium concentration causes an osmotic pull, and water goes to where
that concentration is highest.
QUESTION
dehydration symptoms
Answer:
•Dizziness
•Confusion
